,,iii #aahth ,,congress #b;d ,session ,s4 ,,res4 #fjh ,,in ,,the ,,senate ,,of ,,the ,,united ,,states ,march #ba1 #bjbd,mr4 ,scott of ,florida 7for himself1 ,mr4 ,budd1 ,mr4 ,cramer1 ,mrs4 ,capito1 ,mr4 ,hoeven1 ,mrs4 ,blackburn1 ,mr4 ,cruz1 ,mr4 ,rubio1 ,mr4 ,hawley1 ,mr4 ,cotton1 ,mr4 ,scott of ,south ,carolina1 ,mr4 ,marshall1 ,mr4 ,johnson1 ,mr4 ,braun1 and ,mrs4 ,hyde-,smith7 submitted the following resolution2 which was referred to the ,committee on the ,judiciary ,,resolution ,denouncing the ,biden ,administration's immigration policies4 ,whereas ,president ,joe ,biden and ,secretary of ,homeland ,security ,alejandro ,mayorkas have created the worst border security crisis in the history of the ,united ,states2 ,whereas ,president ,biden1 beginning on day one of his administration1 systematically dismantled effective border security measures and interior immigration enforcement2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration's open-borders policies have incentivized nearly #i1cjj1jjj illegal aliens from all around the world1 including criminal aliens and suspected terrorists1 to arrive at the southwest border2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration has allowed at least #f1cjj1jjj illegal aliens from the southwest border to travel to communities within the ,united ,states2 ,whereas current immigration law allows for the ,united ,states to enter into asylum cooperative agreements with other countries to allow for the removal of certain aliens seeking asylum in the ,united ,states2 ,whereas asylum cooperative agreements provide the ,united ,states with another tool to reduce the incentives for illegal immigration2 ,whereas asylum cooperative agreements increase cooperation with ,united ,states allies in the ,western ,hemisphere and around the world and promote shared responsibility2 ,whereas the previous administration announced asylum cooperative agreements with ,el ,salvador1 ,guatemala1 and ,honduras2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration suspended and terminated these asylum cooperative agreements as part of its open-borders agenda that has encouraged mass illegal immigration at the southwest border2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration retains the ability to negotiate asylum cooperative agreements with ,el ,salvador1 ,guatemala1 and ,honduras but has refused to do so1 despite historic illegal immigration at the southwest border2 ,whereas clauses 7ii7 and 7iii77,,iv7 of section #bce7;b77#a77;,b7 of the ,immigration and ,nationality ,act 7#h ,u4,s4,c4 #abbe7;b77#a77;,b77 require the ,secretary of ,homeland ,security to detain inadmissible aliens arriving in the ,united ,states who indicate either an intention to apply for asylum under section #bjh of that ,act 7#h ,u4,s4,c4 #aaeh7 or a fear of persecution2 ,whereas the ,immigration and ,nationality ,act provides for the ,secretary of ,homeland ,security to detain1 during removal proceedings1 aliens who arrive at the border and are found to be inadmissible2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration has purposely violated ,united ,states immigration law by refusing to detain inadmissible aliens arriving at the border2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration could comply with the mandatory detention statutes of the ,immigration and ,nationality ,act2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration's purposeful violation of the mandatory detention statutes of the ,immigration and ,nationality ,act has resulted in the mass release of millions of illegal aliens into ,united ,states communities2 ,whereas current immigration law allows for inadmissible aliens to be expeditiously removed from the ,united ,states once encountered at the border unless they establish a credible fear of persecution2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration has released millions of illegal aliens into the ,united ,states without even processing them for expedited removal to be screened for asylum eligibility2 ,whereas only #f4h percent of the #e1fjj1jjj illegal alien encounters from ,january #bj1 #bjba1 through ,august #ca1 #bjbc1 resulted in the ,department of ,homeland ,security placing the illegal alien into expedited removal proceedings to even be screened for asylum eligibility2 ,whereas roughly #dj percent of the illegal aliens who were not found to have a credible fear of persecution were not removed and remained in the ,united ,states as of ,august #ca1 #bjbc2 ,whereas nearly a third of the illegal aliens who were processed for expedited removal and who did not even attempt to make a claim for asylum cannot be confirmed by the ,biden ,administration as having been removed from the ,united ,states2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration could expand expedited removal to more quickly remove illegal aliens at the border and screen more illegal aliens for asylum eligibility instead of mass releasing them into the ,united ,states2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration's limited use of expedited removal only incentivizes illegal immigration and worsens the border crisis2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration terminated the ,migrant ,protection ,protocols despite their effectiveness2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration has purposely violated ,united ,states immigration law by abusing discretionary case-by-case authority and other parole authorities to mass parole illegal aliens who would otherwise have no legal basis to enter and remain in the ,united ,states2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration's proposed solution to the border crisis failed to address catch-and-release valves such as the ,flores ,settlement ,agreement and the ,william ,wilberforce ,trafficking ,victims ,protection ,reauthorization ,act of #bjjh 7,public ,law #aaj-deg2 #abb ,stat4 #ejdd7 that incentivize surges of unaccompanied alien children and adults arriving with children to come to the southwest border1 putting children's lives at risk2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration could end its catch-and-release policies2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration's proposed solutions to the border crisis did nothing to end catch-and-release but instead mandated mass release of illegal aliens at the southwest border2 ,whereas parks1 schools1 police stations1 recreation centers1 hotels1 and airports have been repurposed for use as shelters for illegal aliens2 ,whereas the ,biden ,administration's open-borders policies have strained ,state and local social services resources as the millions of illegal aliens who have entered since ,january #bj1 #bjba1 compete with ,united ,states citizens and legal immigrants for those resources2 ,whereas section #bab7;f7 of the ,immigration and ,nationality ,act 7#h ,u4,s4,c4 #aahb7;f77 empowers the ,president to suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens 4 4 4 or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate4 4 4 whenever the ,president finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the ,united ,states would be detrimental to the interests of the ,united ,states2 ,whereas1 in ,trump v4 ,hawaii1 #ach ,s4 ,ct4 #bcib 7#bjah71 the ,supreme ,court described the ,president's suspension of entry authority as an authority that exudes deference to the ,president in every clause2 ,whereas ,president ,biden has cited his suspension of entry authority in other instances but has refused to use that authority to address the border crisis2 ,whereas ,president ,biden retains the power to use his suspension of entry authority to address the border crisis2 ,whereas ,president ,biden's refusal to use his suspension of entry authority ensures that the border stays open1 endangers the ,united ,states1 and encourages illegal immigration2 and ,whereas ,president ,biden has claimed he is powerless to address the border crisis through executive action3 ,now1 therefore1 be it ,that the ,senate-- 7#a7 affirms that1 in order to help control the crisis at the border that it has created1 the ,biden ,administration has the authority to-- 7,a7 end the catch-and-release policy2 7,b7 reinstate the ,migrant ,protection ,protocols2 7,c7 enter into asylum cooperative agreements2 7,d7 end abuses of parole authority2 7,e7 detain inadmissible aliens2 7,f7 use expedited removal authority2 and 7,g7 rein in taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal aliens2 7#b7 affirms that the ,biden ,administration is refusing to use such authorities2 and 7#c7 urges the ,biden ,administration to immediately begin using such authorities4
