WASHINGTON — House Republicans unveiled a sweeping border security proposal on Thursday they plan to advance once they hold the majority in the 118th Congress.
At a news conference outside the Capitol, members of the Texas delegation previewed a 13-page legislative framework that aims to combat the historically high migration straining government resources at the U.S.-Mexico border.
“We’re not here to complain about what’s going on, but to offer solutions that we know will work for the betterment of our country, our state and to make sure that we’re saving lives,” said Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, a primary architect of the plan.
