WASHINGTON––U.S. Senator John Boozman (R-AR) joined Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and nine other GOP colleagues to call on President Joe Biden to replace Vice President Kamala Harris as Border Czar in light of her failure to stem the flow of illegal migrants to the United States and work with our neighbors to secure the border.
“As we have mentioned repeatedly, your administration’s rhetoric caused a surge in illegal immigration into our country. From August 2020 to August 2021, there has been a 317 percent increase in encounters at the border. The current surge is the largest in 20 years as illegal border crossings have increased substantially since you took office,” the senators wrote.
“Over the past six months, Vice President Harris has done absolutely nothing to help secure our border, develop a strategy to partner with our neighbors, or even talk to the American people about the border crisis. It is stunning that America’s Border Czar was silent as thousands of Haitian migrants illegally crossed the border, and set up a de facto refugee camp in America. Now…it is essential you replace Vice President Harris as Border Czar with someone more qualified and engaged for this important role,” they continued.
