RESOLUTION
Commending the men and women of U.S. Customs and Border Protection for
their service and sacrifice amidst a growing crisis at the southern
border.
Whereas there is a growing humanitarian and national security crisis at the
southern border;
Whereas the United States is experiencing the highest number of illegal
crossings in 15 years, 171,000 of which occurred in March 2021 alone;
Whereas border facilities are at 1,700-percent capacity;
Whereas two Yemeni terrorists on the Federal no-fly list were recently
apprehended while trying to breach the southern border; and
Whereas the Biden Administration and Vice President Harris have refused to
acknowledge this crisis and take the necessary steps to secure the
border, putting enormous strain on U.S. Customs and Border Protection
agents: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the men and women of the U.S. Customs and Border
Protection--
(1) are deserving of recognition for their tireless work to
defend American sovereignty, uphold law and order, and mitigate
the humanitarian and national security threat unfolding at the
southern border;
(2) deserve gratitude for their service, integrity, and
steadfast commitment to fulfill the duties in which they are
entrusted; and
(3) should be commended for their sacrifice while being
away from their families and putting their lives at risk to
protect our communities.
