Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) vehemently opposed the Senate’s “border” bill Sunday, saying she would never vote to “legalize illegal immigration.”
The Senate has released a long-awaited border bill, but as Breitbart News editor Neil Munro said, the bill will only increase the flow of migrants into the United States.
Mr. Blackburn, a staunch conservative, said the United States should not allow a single immigrant to cross the border illegally. She said in her written statement:
It is against the law for individuals to enter our country illegally. This is still an amazing thing to say. Even though we are a nation of law and order, the Biden administration has allowed more than 8.8 million illegal immigrants to flood our border. Meanwhile, at least 85,000 migrant children have gone missing under Biden’s Health Department watch, as cartels and unvetted sponsors take advantage of them.That’s not acceptable and it’s acceptable. It is unacceptable for even one immigrant to enter our country illegally. I will never vote to legalize illegal immigration.and I don’t support this deal.
She added, “If my Democratic colleagues are serious about working with us to secure our borders, they should call for a vote on the Secure Borders Act (HR2), which will be introduced in the Senate on May 15th. “The matter has stalled without even a public hearing being held,” he added. ”
