WE ARE A NATION OF LAWS
(Mrs. MILLER of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute.)
Mrs. MILLER of Illinois. Madam Speaker, I had the privilege of visiting the border with President Trump in June to see our Border Patrol agents doing one of the most dangerous jobs imaginable. They face the threat of MS-13 and violent drug cartels who have been empowered and enriched by the Biden administration.
Sadly, the left is vilifying the Border Patrol the same way they vilified our police officers during the defund the police movement.
The American people want secure borders and safe communities. Even President Obama this week said Biden's open border policies are unsustainable because we are a nation with borders. I want to thank President Obama for affirming that we are a nation of laws and a nation with borders, and I hope the Biden administration will listen to him.
