Several Republican lawmakers have raised alarms over the Biden administration's handling of border security, citing a significant increase in illegal immigration and national security threats. Representative Greg Steube highlighted a sharp spike of 30,000 Chinese nationals crossing the southern border since October 2023. Representative Mario Diaz-Balart emphasized the need for his bill, H.R. 2, to restore the rule of law and secure the border. Other Republicans, including Representatives Gary Palmer, Mike Collins, and Andrew Clyde, echoed concerns about national security risks posed by the current border policies. Additionally, there are reports of criminal activities, such as a Venezuelan gang's sex trafficking operation and murders committed by illegal immigrants released under Biden's policies. The issue of foreign ownership of U.S. farmland, particularly by Chinese entities, has also been cited as a national security concern, with Representative Ashley Hinson noting that China has purchased 347,000 acres. Grayson Bakich reported on the border crisis via Floridian Press, and HouseGOP has been vocal about the need for border security.
It is far past time for the Biden administration to secure our borders and keep terrorist suspects, and other aliens looking to inflict harm on Americans, from entering the country. https://t.co/6rCKBdB06P
Biden is risking our national security. https://t.co/ssGSIvun4a
Joe Biden and Secretary Mayorkas let a wanted murderer into our country. That wanted murderer went on to stab his girlfriend and her 4-year-old daughter to death in the U.S. Biden's Border Crisis is endangering Americans every day. https://t.co/w1RIBD1F87
Over 40 million acres of agricultural land in the U.S. is owned by foreign investors from China and other hostile countries. This land is often near military instillations and other critical infrastructure, posing a major threat to national safety and food security. The Senate… https://t.co/cIHPK6zYKU
Gabriel Cuz Choc, who entered the U.S. illegally last year, stabbed his girlfriend and her 4-year-old daughter to death. He was wanted for two murders in Guatemala. The Biden admin's open borders make it even harder for agents to properly vet people. https://t.co/IJux3Mypdr

Illegal aliens continue to harm Americans, and the Biden administration continues to release them into the country. Americans deserve better, from securing our borders to interior enforcement of our immigration laws. https://t.co/M6IftRBroa
Communist China shouldn't be allowed to buy another acre of American farmland, nor should we rely upon our top foreign adversary for key parts of our food supply chain. Food security is national security! https://t.co/aduwyjP0SD
By refusing to secure our borders, Biden is: -Ignoring and abusing immigration laws. -Putting national security at risk. -Harming American workers. -Putting American communities in danger. -Hurting American children's education. And he's not interested in putting a stop to it.
Map shows just how much farm land China owns in United States - but one lawmaker has a plan to stop the buy out https://t.co/0sI61bzY1b https://t.co/rP8W3jZTQT
Securing the border is vital to our national security. Democrats would rather play politics and flood our country with illegal immigrants. https://t.co/VwfMenYuof

HOW TO STOP CHINA’S LAND GRAB (The Daily Signal) Over the past two years, nearly half the states in America acted to scrutinize purchases of land linked to China and other foreign adversaries. Concerns focus primarily on national security threats from China, and they’re… https://t.co/6wT0zcTW5B

Communist China is taking full advantage of Joe Biden’s wide open borders. The Biden Administration’s border crisis is a serious national security risk—yet the White House refuses to protect the American people. https://t.co/9TIwFp1hZN
One of the greatest threats facing the U.S. right now is the crisis at our borders. We are witnessing a historic level of illegal immigration into our country. That's why I call it an invasion! Americans have the right to demand border security. https://t.co/nZ081OpYvX
BIDEN MIGRANT CRIME: A Venezuelan criminal gang has been operating a sex trafficking operation across multiple states — smuggling victims across the southern border, aided and abetted by the Biden administration's open border. https://t.co/2FU3GGVpZX
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: border security is national security. It has been over a year since @HouseGOP passed H.R. 2. Yet, the Democrats refuse to take action to secure our borders. https://t.co/atM7OOo0UQ
🚨President Biden’s open-border policy is a national security crisis. My bill, H.R. 2, would secure our border by restoring the rule of law. https://t.co/SE1pQpjKcy

Our adversaries are intentionally exploiting the weakness of America’s wide open Southern border by sending military-aged males into our country. The sharp spike of 30,000 Chinese nationals at our border since October of 2023 is nothing but an invasion. What are they planning?… https://t.co/92gc6xSxM7
