Securing the border between the United States and Mexico is an issue that remains unresolved despite bi-partisan agreement for the toughest border policy in decades. During the Spring of 2024 Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma proposed a solution to our border crisis, which was negotiated by both parties and would have been signed into law by President Biden.
Before the bill could be put to a vote Donald Trump intervened and killed the bill because he does not want to solve problems for the American people, he only wants to complain about them so he can have something to run on in the 2024 Presidential Election. Vice President Kamala Harris promises to sign this bill into law when elected President.
Here are some of the highlights of this bill to secure our border, that have already been negotiated and agreed to by both parties working together on a bipartisan basis to solve this problem:
- NO amnesty
- NO more 10-year wait for an asylum hearing
- More ICE agents for deportations
- More Border Patrol agents for arrests
- More asylum officers for faster hearings and deportation
- Technology at the border to inderdict drugs and illegal crossings
- Deports anyone seeking asylum wtih a criminal record immediately, instead of deporting them years from now
- Creates a new Title 42-like authority to shut down and deport everyone when the border is overrun
- Cracks down on criminal cartels who traffic dangerous drugs like fentanyl and meth into our country
Project 2025 addresses the issue of immigration by mass deportation measures that are extreme and dangerous to the American people.
