Republican legislators are spotlighting the record number of dead migrants found on U.S. soil, but they are silent about the many migrants who have been killed south of the border by President Joe Biden’s easy migration policy.
“This suffering and death [on the border] fall squarely on the shoulders of the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security—Alejandro Mayorkas, a man who has been derelict in his duty,” Rep. Mark Green (R-TN), the GOP chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security Committee, said.
“More than 1,700 migrants have died on U.S. soil while trying to enter the country illegally on Mayorkas’s watch—people he encouraged to make the journey,” Green said on June 14 as he opened a hearing to begin investigating Mayorkas for an impeachment vote.
