(April 24, 2023, Washington, D.C.) — On the heels of the House Judiciary Committee’s approval of a landmark bill that would deter mass illegal immigration, end asylum abuse and rein in the Biden administration’s abuse of parole authority, the House Homeland Security Committee has rolled out a bill that would deliver much needed resources to secure our southern border.

The Border Reinforcement Act adds manpower, technology and physical infrastructure needed to regain control of our borders. It would require that money dedicated to border enforcement be used for just that — not for processing, releasing and flying illegal migrants around the country, as the Biden administration has been doing. The bill also requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to collect and disseminate vital information about the people who are encountered crossing the border illegally. . . .
