October Brings More Record Illegal Immigration

Washington, November 16, 2021 | Jessica Lycos (202-379-6385)

WASHINGTON D.C. - Representative Paul Gosar, DDS (AZ-04) issued the following statement after the Biden administration released new data today showing nearly 165,000 illegal aliens were apprehended along the southern border in October.

 

“Another month, another record number of lawbreakers illegally crossing our southern border.  164,303 illegal aliens were captured by Border Patrol agents.  This is the highest total recorded in the history of the United States for the month of October.  In any year.  Ever.

 

While Mr. Biden continues to falsely claim our borders are under control, Congress is preparing to pass Biden’s reckless $4.9 trillion social spending plan that provides $100 billion for amnesty to millions of illegal aliens already living in our country.

 

No matter how much the Left tries to quiet me, I will continue to speak out against giving amnesty to millions of illegal aliens.  I will not stop fighting to defend the rule of law and securing our borders” concluded Congressman Gosar.
