“A record number of illegal aliens have crossed our southern AND northern borders – and something must be done."
Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN, Texas – (WASHINGTON, D.C.) – U.S. Congressman Brian Babin (TX-36) issued the following statement on his new bill, the Remain in Canada Act (H.R. 7739), which applies President Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy to the U.S.-Canada border.
“Due to the current administration’s actions – complete negligence at best or, more likely, an intentional mass-replacement effort – America’s borders are being overrun by millions of unvetted immigrants from around the world,” said Babin. “A record number of illegal aliens have crossed our southern AND northern borders – and something must be done.
“According to the CBP’s own data, the 2023 Biden-Trudeau agreement on asylum has failed to lower the number of encounters at the U.S.-Canada border. It’s also done nothing to prevent or combat the Biden administration’s ridiculous parole policies, allowing unchecked illegals to pour into and across our country. Under President Trump, we had the most secure borders seen in decades. President Trump’s ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy worked to mitigate unlawful entry, secure the southern border, and hold Mexico accountable.
“My new bill, the Remain in Canada Act, will implement the same policy at the northern border. Instead of blindly allowing parolees into our nation, my bill will add an important tool to stop illegal immigration: ensuring illegal entrants or asylum seekers coming from Canada are not allowed to freely roam our country and burden American taxpayers.”
