Secure the Border, End Human Trafficking, and Defeat the Cartels
Secure the Border, End Human Trafficking, and Defeat the Cartels
- Current Border Crisis Overview
Americans overwhelmingly disapprove of the border crisis created by President Biden:
- 68% disapprove of Biden’s handling of immigration (AP and NORC).
- 66% think the border is worse off now than it was under the Trump Administration (KAConsulting).
President Biden’s policies have created America’s current historic border crisis:
- In his first 100 days, President Biden issued 94 executive actions that undid President Trump’s successful border policies.
- Biden has allowed more illegal aliens into the country than the population of 44 U.S. states.
- Nearly 1,400 pounds of deadly fentanyl were seized at the border in just one month this year, yet much more is getting through.
- Fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18 to 45.
- 367 Known or Suspected Terrorists have crossed the border under Biden. This month, eight suspected terrorists with ties to ISIS were caught after crossing the southern border using the CBPOne app.
- America First Solutions
There’s already a playbook to secure the border: Reinstate effective policies from the Trump Administration that enforced the law and prioritized security.
America First Policies to Solve the Border Crisis:
- Reinstate Effective Policies: These policies secured the border, reduced illegal crossings, and held illegal aliens accountable for violating immigration law.
- Finish Building the Wall: Continue construction of the border wall to prevent illegal entries.
- Mass Deportations: Enforce existing immigration laws and remove illegal aliens; prioritize the removal of those who have committed crimes.
- Let Border Patrol Do Its Job: Get Border Patrol agents back on the line to secure the border instead of spending their time processing and releasing illegal aliens into American communities.
- Implement Stronger Penalties: Impose harsher penalties for illegal crossings and related criminal activities.
By adopting these America First policies, we can restore order at our borders, protect American citizens, and uphold the rule of law.
