Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) issued the following statement after he co-sponsored the Build the Wall, Enforce the Law Act of 2018:
“Republicans in the House remain focused on our national security, and securing our borders is the most important step in keeping America safe. We must continue to work to fix our borders and our broken immigration system, because every single day drug runners, sex traffickers, criminal gangs, and gun runners exploit our borders for their criminal activities. This bill, introduced by House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), would go a long way in making America more secure.” Build the Wall, Enforce the Law Act of 2018 Summary: • Fully funds President Trump’s border wall request at $23.4 billion for Fiscal Year 2019 and advanced appropriations for FY2020-2025. • Includes three additional House-passed immigration enforcement bills that would combat transnational gangs like MS-13, aid in the fight against human trafficking, deter the spread of deadly drugs like fentanyl, and crack down on sanctuary cities. |
