CHAIRMAN GREEN ANNOUNCES FULL COMMITTEE HEARING ON FINANCIAL COST OF THE BIDEN-MAYORKAS BORDER CRISIS

Statement

Date: Sept. 15, 2023
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Immigration

"For nearly three years, America's taxpayers have felt the overwhelming financial burden of this unprecedented border crisis. From uncompensated emergency services provided by hospitals, to overwhelmed public education systems and increased law enforcement costs, communities across the country have had their resources stretched to the breaking point by an influx of illegal aliens, with absolutely no end in sight. The American people have been forced to pay a bill they never asked for. Next week's hearing is a crucial opportunity to highlight these costs for both rural border towns and America's largest cities and gather evidence of how Secretary Mayorkas and President Biden's open-border policies and refusal to enforce the laws passed by Congress have run up the tab for American taxpayers."
