Lindsey Graham: There Will Be No DREAMer Bill Until We Secure Our Border
EXCERPT:
GRAHAM: "Only if we clean up the border. I was on the Gang of Eight bill doing comprehensive immigration. I've been on every DREAMer bill there is. But what’s happened under President Biden, you've allowed 13 million people to come in here illegally. Until we deport people here illegally, why would you legalize anyone. If you legalize one person now, there would be a run on the border. There will be no legalization. There will be no DREAMer bill until we lock our border down. And the number one job for the Budget Committee in the United States Senate is to pass a border security bill on day one. I want to cut taxes, but that comes later. To my friends in the House, we're playing Russian roulette with our national security. Terrorists are all over the place trying to get into the country, 250 people die a day of fentanyl poisoning. What we will do in the Senate is come up with a border bill supported by Stephen Miller and President Trump to lock down the border, create agents to deport people, bed space so they don't have to be released, and finish the wall. That's what we're going to do. If we don't do that first, it's national security malpractice. Secure the border first. Any legalization has to come after you secure your border."
