The House Committee on Homeland Security’s section of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act provides the resources necessary to continue President Trump’s successes at the border including funding for border wall construction, the hiring of new Border Patrol agents, and implementation of new border technology.
Here is what stakeholders are saying:
America First Policy Institute, Greg Sindelar, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer: “This reconciliation legislation represents a clear return to an America First Agenda while also undoing the damage caused by the Biden-Harris Administration. President Trump and America First members of Congress have been working tirelessly to put America’s recovery back on track, and this legislation does that. This legislation includes commonsense policy solutions and would extend tax cuts to save Americans thousands and reject tax hikes that far-Left extremists want to pay for a bloated, wasteful government. Congress needs to move as quickly as possible to secure our border, fight illegal immigration, expand economic prosperity, and empower families.”
Federation for American Immigration Reform, Joe Chatham, Director of Government Relations: “Securing our borders, including by building a border wall on the southern border and hiring more border agents, is critical to ending mass illegal immigration. The funds provided in this reconciliation package are vital to accomplishing those goals and have FAIR’s full support. We look forward to continuing to work with Congress to enact lasting changes to our immigration laws and ensure that efforts are fully funded to deport the millions of illegal aliens currently in the United States.”
NumbersUSA, Michael Hough, Director of Federal Relations: “NumbersUSA supported the reconciliation resolution for the purpose of securing the border and providing the Trump Administration the funding it needs to deport illegal aliens, millions of whom entered the country over the last four years. The Homeland Security Committee draft is a solid first step in this process to secure America's borders and provides Customs and Border Patrol the funding they have so badly needed for many years.”
