Chip Roy, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?524716-1\/house-republicans-hold-news-conference-border-security-plan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">outline<\/a> includes several policies aimed at stymying the mass influx of illegal immigration at the southern border. Among the key tenets of the agenda are plans to complete physical border infrastructure, as well as rectify existing enforcement policies neglected by the Biden administration. Cracking down on cartels and criminal organizations is also a core component, according to the delegation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this new Republican majority in the House, our Texas delegation is committed to using every tool and authority at our disposal to hold President Biden, Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas, and this entire administration accountable for their dereliction of duty,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?524716-1\/house-republicans-hold-news-conference-border-security-plan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a> Rep. Jodey Arrington.<\/p>\n<p>Since taking office, Biden has revoked seemingly every policy imaginable that would permit Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials to effectively secure the U.S.-Mexico border. In June 2021, the administration <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/biden-administration-ends-trumps-remain-in-mexico-immigration-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">announced<\/a> it would be formally ending the Trump-era \u201cRemain in Mexico\u201d policy, which required illegal immigrants seeking asylum to stay in the Latin American country until their court hearing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>More recently, the administration has been fighting in court to eliminate <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/06\/16\/in-may-bidens-border-crisis-yielded-the-highest-number-of-border-arrests-ever-recorded\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Title 42<\/a>, a health policy also established under the Trump administration that allows federal officials to expel illegal immigrants with minimal processing.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of such policy changes, the number of illegal crossings along the southern border has exploded over the past two years. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/cbp-reports-all-time-record-230000-migrant-encounters-us-border-october\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">October<\/a> alone, CBP apprehended more than 230,000 illegals attempting to cross the border, not including the estimated 64,000 \u201cgotaways\u201d who evaded capture. In fiscal year 2022, CBP <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/mayorkas-defends-dhs-record-illegal-border-crossings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> an astonishing 2.3 million apprehensions, compared to the 1.7 million reported in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout their press conference, Texas Republicans also made it a point to emphasize the dangers an open border poses to both Americans and migrants, with Roy highlighting the ongoing travesty of human and sex trafficking.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLittle girls [and] little boys [are] being sold into the sex trafficking trade. In what world is this somehow compassionate?\u201d he said. \u201cThis is destroying lives. [It\u2019s] destroying American lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Try as his administration might to skirt the reality at the border, Biden\u2019s willful incompetence is indeed costing lives. Just this week, CBP <a href=\"https:\/\/www.valleycentral.com\/news\/local-news\/u-s-border-patrol-agent-dies-in-accident-while-on-duty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">announced<\/a> that one of its agents died at 1 a.m. on Wednesday after suffering injuries during a pursuit of illegal immigrants on an all-terrain vehicle. The death came less than 24 hours after Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/townhall.com\/tipsheet\/saraharnold\/2022\/12\/07\/biden-claims-there-are-more-important-things-to-worry-about-than-the-border-n2616875\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told<\/a> a group of reporters he hasn\u2019t visited the border because \u201cthere are more important things going on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When opening the forum to questions from the press, a member of the corporate media unsurprisingly asked the GOP delegation if any of the representatives supported giving amnesty to illegal aliens brought to the U.S. as minors (recipients of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heritage.org\/immigration\/commentary\/daca-unconstitutional-obama-admitted\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)<\/a> program).
