Hinson calls on administration to address border crisis
August 15th, 2024 by Ric Hanson
(Radio Iowa) – Iowa Congresswoman Ashley Hinson, a Republican from Marion, says the current administration has to take responsibility for the crisis at the southern border. Hinson says she’s tired of seeing stories about immigrants who are in the country illegally committing serious crimes. “A recent report from the House Judiciary Committee raised serious concerns about suspected terrorists released into our communities under the Harris-Biden administration. During her time as the Border Czar Harris has only traveled near the southwest border once, and there were reports that border patrol agents were actually told to sanitize the area ahead of her arrival to mask the true severity of the crisis,” Hinson says.
Hinson says the national media are trying to revise history on Harris’ role at the border instead of questioning it. “She, along with every single congressional Democrat who refused to support secure border policies and hold this administration accountable, bear responsibility for the dangerous illegal immigration crisis,” she says. “They bear responsibility for those who have been violently attacked and in some cases killed by illegal immigrants.” Hinson says the issue needs to be addressed.
“There must be accountability for the ongoing crisis at our southern border, and I will continue working to hold Harris and Biden accountable so we can make America safe again,” Hinson says.
Hinson made her comments during her weekly conference call with reporters.
