- House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said that if the GOP wins back control of Congress, ending the immigration crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border would be the first issue of business.
- “The first thing you’ll see is a bill to control the border first,” McCarthy said. “You’ve got to get control over the border. You’ve had almost 2 million people just this year alone coming across.”
- House Republicans announced in July a comprehensive plan to secure the southern border if the GOP takes back the House or the Senate.
