House Republicans: DHS Failed to Implement Available Border Fixes

A group of House Republicans wrote acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan to criticize DHS' failure to adopt border security fixes that are available without additional congressional action. They noted the president has shown leadership on the issue but DHS lacks “the same manner of enthusiasm for fixing this crisis.”


The group -- Republican Reps. Michael Cloud (Tex.), Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Chip Roy (Tex.), Scott Perry (Penn.), Jody Hice (Ga.), Mark Green (Tenn.), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Ken Buck (Colo.), Brian Babin (Tex.) and Jim Jordan (Ohio) – told McAleenan to “support the president” in his quest to secure the border.


The letter said, “Recent DHS statistics on the number of arrivals at our southern border are clear proof that what is currently being done, is not enough…, "(A)s of March 31, 2019, 361,087 migrants have been apprehended between the points of entry (POEs) in Fiscal Year (FY) 2019, representing a 108 percent increase over the same time in FY 2018. Current projections are that more than 1 million people will have crossed our southern border illegally this year. Our constituents, the American public, are confounded as to why more is not being done by your Department…As the President continues to show leadership on this issue, we strongly encourage you to exercise the same manner of enthusiasm for fixing this crisis…Included in this letter are proposals that would undoubtedly slow the surge at the border and provide context for long term immigration solutions.”


The letter urges DHS to:

• Train Border Patrol Agents to conduct credible fear interviews;
• Repeal the ICE parole policy established under the Obama Administration, which provides that most asylum seekers must be released and given a work authorization;
• Provide work authorizations only after an asylum application has been approved;
• Raise asylum fees;
• Promulgate regulation to terminate the Flores settlement;
• Negotiate “Safe Third Country” agreement with Mexico, which would require Central American migrants to seek asylum in Mexico, not the U.S.; and
• Fully implement “Remain in Mexico” policy.

Note to the group of House Republicans-----
Who hired DHS?
Stop playing your games and acting like a 7 year old.

BOUT TIME these COWARDS start JUMPING ALL OVER TRUMP+CO.!!!!! NEO-COMMUNIST DIRTBAG Paul Ryan is LONG GONE!!!!!

TRUMP DOESN'T NEED TO CHNAGE ANY LAWS WITH THE DEMOCRATIC COMMUNIST PARTY. He can do it administratively and is REFUSING to do so because he's following a UN/NWO mandated plan that's been imposed on him. PERIOD!!!!!

The entire Republican caucas in the House needs to GO AFTER HIM NOW!!!!! Threaten to IMPEACH HIS ASS with the Democratic Communist Party unless he doesn't stop this invasion PRONTO NOW LAST WEEK!!!!!

The NEXT letter these Repub. COWARDS address to him should be thedemand to invoke the Insurrection Act. and the deployment of MICROWAVE TRUCKS on the Southern Border along with 30,000 troops and equipment, some of which will be DEPLOYED OVER and INSIDE OF THE MEXICAN BORDER in a SAFE ZONE if the Mexican government refuses to fully cooperate.

The THREAT is on the Southern Border to this nation and it's citizens AND NOT FROM IRAN!!!!!

Those are all things the President and Administration has already put in play. It's just nice to see Republicans in Congress write the Secretary of DHS to let him know that Republicans in Congress are watching him.

Why do you not want to change the laws? Is it because you don't think they'll pass so why try?

They are only jumping on DHS while protecting Trump who hired DHS.

More show boating! It is all a game. If they were trying to solve the weed problem, they would dig out the roots instead of pruning the leaves.

No they haven't all been "put in play." Obviously they are still issuing the work permits early. It would be a very easy task to cancel the memo signed by the 2009 ICE director (Morton) that authorized the early giving of work permits to asylum claimants. Why hasn't that been done. This is not the kind of thing that simply goes overlooked. In my opinion, something else may be going on here!

Trump by Executive Order cancelled parole for asylum seekers in his series of January 2017 Executive Orders on Immigration, restricting it to a "case by case" basis, which supercedes any stupid Obama "ICE Director" "Memo". Jeff Sessions also redefined the "credible fear" standard and rightly so.

What's going on here are agencies who didn't think they had to follow Orders because they thought Trump would be forced to resign or be impeached or worse, because of the Russia Hoax. Do you really think 17 intelligence agencies, the FBI, the DOJ, the FISA Courts, the MSM and most certainly many members of Congress colluded to end this Presidency by a coup based on a hoax because they didn't like Donald Trump? No, they did that because they didn't want him to implement his policies and fix our country.

But it's all water under the bridge at this point. He'll have to find a new way to solve this problem.

We've seen in several articles were the 2009 ICE director memo is still being followed. It is obviously still being used as a active guideline to parole asylum claimants and immediately issue them a work permit. So are you saying Trump is being played as a fool? Such a directive (memo) can easily be cancelled.

There are some things you just can't defend, so why bother trying?
