Sen. Rick Scott & Rep. Andy Harris Lead Letter Urging Two-Step Reconciliation Process to Advance Trump Agenda
Dec. 18, 2024"Today, Senator Rick Scott and Congressman Andy Harris, Chair of the House Freedom Caucus, led 26 of their Senate and House colleagues in a letter to Leader-Elect John Thune and Speaker Mike Johnson fully supporting a two-step reconciliation strategy in the 119th Congress. In their letter, the members emphasize the need to immediately pass a reconciliation bill focused on transformational America First legislation to secure the border, followed by the passage of a second reconciliation bill to prevent Democrat tax hikes, extend the Trump Tax Cuts, and slash wasteful government spending through reforms and cuts identified by the new Department of Government Efficiency."

Tom TiffanyBlackburn, Cornyn, GOP Colleagues Introduce Bill to Stop Biden-Harris Amnesty Program
Oct. 30, 2024"U.S. Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), John Cornyn (R-Texas), and 12 of their colleagues introduced the Visa Integrity Preservation Act, which would close a loophole in current law that the Biden-Harris administration exploited in a June 2024 executive action to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants who entered the United States without inspection or overstayed a visa:
“Since day one in office, the Biden-Harris administration has made it crystal clear that they support an open border and providing mass amnesty to illegal immigrants through unlawful catch-and-release programs,” said Senator Blackburn. “Our Visa Integrity Preservation Act would stop the Biden-Harris administration from devaluing U.S. citizenship and making illegal immigration legal."

Jim Risch, Sen. Dan Sullivan, Sen. Thom Tillis, Sen. Tommy TubervilleDaines Introduces Bill to Combat Biden-Harris’ Failed Amnesty Program
Oct. 3, 2024"U.S. Senator Steve Daines joined his Republican colleagues in introducing the “Visa Integrity Preservation Act,” which will halt the Biden-Harris administration’s violation of the “Immigration and Nationality Act” by ending its policy of allowing immigrants who illegally entered the U.S. or overstayed their visas to regularize their status through obtaining temporary work visas."

Sept. 26, 2024"U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Thom Tillis (R-NC), Jim Risch (R-ID), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Ted Budd (R-NC), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), Steve Daines (R-MT), Katie Britt (R-AL), Bill Hagerty (R-TN), Pete Ricketts (R-NE), James Lankford (R-OK), Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) introduced their Visa Integrity Preservation Act, which would close a loophole in current law that the Biden-Harris administration took advantage of in a June 2024 executive action to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants who entered the United States without inspection or overstayed a visa:
“For almost four years, the Biden-Harris administration has waived their magic amnesty wand to create unlawful programs that allow any and every person to enter and stay in the U.S. – legally or not,” said Sen. Cornyn. “By strengthening the laws already on the books, our legislation would root out this massive pull factor while also preserving the integrity of our employment-based nonimmigrant visa program, and I’m grateful to my colleagues for their support.”
