U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson traveled to the Texas-Mexico border on Wednesday and said that if President Joe Biden wants Republican support for helping Ukraine and Israel in their wars, he needs to crack down on illegal immigration at the border.
“If President Biden wants a supplemental spending bill focused on national security, it better begin by defending America's national security. It begins right here on our southern border,” Johnson said during a news conference at the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, where he was accompanied by 60 other House Republican lawmakers.
