A 15-member delegation of Texas Republican Congressional representatives led by Chip Roy, signed a joint letter to fellow members of Congress stating:

“Dear Colleague, The State of Texas is bearing the brunt of a national crisis at our southern border directly resulting from the unlawful and irresponsible actions of President [Joe] Biden and Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas. Criminal cartels maintain operational control of the border. Migrants are dying on Texas ranches and along the Rio Grande. … ranchers are threatened, and high-speed chases are tearing through small towns. … dangerous fentanyl is pouring into our communities via an open border… killing 200 Americans a day.”

The Lone Star State leaders indicate they will refuse to support new funding for the federal government at the end of the fiscal year on Sep. 30 unless the Biden administration levels up to secure the border.

The group also demands:

• The federal lawsuit against the state of Texas to be dropped,

• Requires Department of Homeland Security Secretary (DHS) Alejandro Mayorkas to be fired or have his salary stripped.

“We must use the power of the purse to force President Biden to end the carnage resulting from open borders,” they said, noting they will oppose appropriations for DHS until it takes necessary steps to secure the border.

This includes:

• Signing HR 2, Roy’s border security bill,

• Adopting policies that give law enforcement and the U.S. military the tools to target cartels,

• Reimbursing Texas $10 billion, and

• Ensuring Mayorkas is removed from office, fired or defunded.

The signers of the letter include Reps. Brian Babin, Wesley Hunt, Keith Self, Randy Weber, Beth Van Duyne, Nathaniel Moran, Michael Burgess, Michael Cloud, Lance Gooden, Troy Nehls, Pete Sessions, Ronny Jackson, Pat Fallon and Morgan Luttrell.
