  • Chair Green
The House Committee on Homeland Security, under the leadership of Chairman Mark Green (R-TN), has released documents obtained through a subpoena of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that identified over 45 airport locations that were used by DHS to secretly fly over 400,000 illegal immigrants into the country. 
 
According to Fox News:
 
“Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data is revealing the more than 45 cities in the U.S. that hundreds of thousands of migrants have flown into via a controversial parole program for four nationalities — with the vast majority entering the U.S. via airports in Florida.


 
DHS also revealed in the subpoena response that as of October 2023, there were about 1.6 million applicants waiting for DHS approval to fly to the U.S. via the parole program.
 
DHS said in its subpoena response, "All individuals paroled into the United States are, by definition, inadmissible, including those paroled under the CHNV processes."

JOE BIDEN’S BORDER CRISIS BY THE NUMBERS:
  • Since Joe Biden took office:
    • There have been OVER 9.2 MILLION illegal immigrant encounters nationwide. 
    • There have been OVER 7.6  MILLION illegal immigrant encounters at our Southern Border.
    • There have been 1.8 million known gotaways who evaded U.S. Border Patrol.  
    • Immigration judges have thrown out approximately 200,000 deportation cases because DHS did not file the required "Notice to Appear" by the time of the scheduled hearing.
  • In March, there were 189,372 illegal immigrant encounters at our Southern Border.
    • March was the 37th straight month where monthly illegal immigrant encounters have been higher than even the highest month seen under President Trump. 
  • The Biden Border Crisis is costing the United States approximately $150.7 billion each year. 
    • The burden of illegal immigration on U.S. taxpayers is both staggering and crippling, with the gross cost per taxpayer at $1,156 every year.
  • Under Biden, over 350 of these individuals whose names appear on the terrorist watchlist were stopped trying to cross the Southern Border.
    • So far in FY24, there have been 75 individuals whose names appear on the terrorist watch list who have been stopped trying to enter the U.S. illegally between ports of entry at the Southern Border.
  • So far in FY24, 24,376 Communist Chinese nationals have been encountered at the Southwest border.
    • Encounters of Communist Chinese nationals in March 2024 increased by 8,500% compared to March 2021. 
    • Encounters of Communist Chinese nationals have surpassed all of last fiscal year––just six months into FY24.
  • Biden’s Far Left open border policies are to blame for this historic crisis. 
    • There are OVER 60 instances of Joe Biden and his Administration taking actions that undermined our nation’s border security, including halting the construction of the border wall. 
    • In August 2022, Biden and his Administration decided to make the border crisis WORSE by formally ending former President Trump’s successful ‘Remain in Mexico’ program.”
    • The Biden Administration announced on May 10, 2023, that it would allow for the release of some migrants into the U.S. with no way to track them. 
      • Biden’s Department of Homeland Security has now admitted that 40% of catch-and-release migrants have disappeared.
