(Radio Iowa) – The six Republicans who represent Iowa in the U-S House and Senate are calling on the Biden Administration to reopen rail crossings in Texas. The U-S Border Patrol suspended rail operations in Eagle Pass and El Paso on Monday to shift agents to process migrants crossing the border. Congressman Zach Nunn of Bondurant says those two rail crossings are critical to getting Iowa grain and agricultural exports to Mexico.  “That’s a third of all ag export coming out of the country to Mexico, our number one trading partner,” Nunn says. “…So at the same time we have a dumpster fire on immigration, now we’ve poured gasoline on it by saying we’re not going to allow Iowa corn to leave the country, but we’re going to allow unfettered access to illegal immigrants coming into the country.”

Iowa’s congressional delegation sent a letter to President Biden and the U-S Secretary of Homeland Security yesterday (Wednesday), calling the situation at the southern border grave. Nunn says the Biden Administration’s failure to secure the border is making things tougher for law enforcement in Iowa. “There is no strategy for curbing the amount of crime coming across the border,” Nunn says. “With the border incursion comes crime, comes fentanyl, comes human trafficking.”

Nunn met with local officers at the Davis County Law Enforcement Center in Bloomfield on Wednesday.

(Radio Iowa) – Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy says he will withdraw from the Colorado Primary if former President Donald Trump isn’t on it. The Colorado Supreme Court this week declared Trump ineligible for office, citing Trump’s role in the January 6th, 2021 riot at the U-S Capitol. Ramaswamy says the Colorado ruling is based on a misinterpretation of the U-S Constitution.

“Section 3 of the 14th Amendment was made for people from parts of the Confederacy from being re-elected to a post-Civil War government,” Ramaswamy says, “so I always stand with the Constitution, not with a fake set of Democratic un-elected cabal of judges in a partisan vote in the state of Colorado interpreting our Constitution in a way that no federal judge would.”

Ramaswamy made his comments yesterday (Wednesday) during a stop in Hampton. He’s making stops in eight Iowa cities today (Thursday) and has said he’ll have visited each of Iowa’s 99 counties twice by early next year.
