WASHINGTON – Today, Congresswoman Susie Lee (NV-03) released the following statement after President Biden announced new executive action to protect our southern border:
“Today, after calling on the President to take executive action to protect our southern border, he did just that. Legislation through Congress still remains the most effective way to have long-term solutions and funding that would stand up to legal challenges. Right now, we have a tough and fair bipartisan border security deal, but House Republican leadership won't let us vote on it.
“Instead of voting on renaming 24 post offices this week, we should be voting on the bipartisan border security deal to address this decades-long issue.”
