  7. I visited the southern border to see the Biden Border Crisis firsthand. We spoke with overwhelmed agents who are desperate for more help to stem the tide of illegal crossings. From 2020-2021, over 1.7M people were apprehended at the border – & these are just those we caught!

  13. While blocking Russian energy imports is imperative, it’s not acceptable to simply increase imports from other countries like Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. We must immediately increase our own domestic oil production to reach true American energy independence.
