Rep. Carlos Giménez (R-Fla.) wrote a letter to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, urging him to reconsider allowing four senior border officials to testify before Congress over the migrant crisis after they were denied permission, reported a Fox News Digital exclusive.
Since President Joe Biden took office, the United States is facing the largest incursion of illegal aliens in history, as millions cross the Mexico-U.S. border with almost no opposition from federal authorities.
“As a member of the Committee on Homeland Security and chairman of the Subcommittee on Transportation and Maritime Security, my priority is protecting the safety and territorial integrity of our truly exceptional country,” wrote Giménez, a former mayor of Miami-Dade County, who is now representing his state in the House of Representatives.“Over the past two years, the American people have witnessed the largest migratory and border crisis in recent memory. Over five million people have crossed the border, including several dozen on the Terrorist Watch List. The ongoing crisis endangers American citizens and migrants alike.”
