Nov. 15, 2024

"U.S. Sen.

Sen. Cruz earned this recognition for authoring the Justice for Jocelyn Act, one of NICE’s top-priority bills, aimed at enhancing the detention and tracking of illegal aliens entering the United States."

Blackburn, 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."

Daines 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."

Cornyn, Cruz, Tillis, 11 GOP Colleagues Introduce Bill to Stop Biden-Harris Amnesty Program
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.”

Rubio, Colleagues to Garland: Tren De Aragua Continues to Terrorize Our Nation
Sept. 20, 2024

"Tren de Aragua, a criminal Venezuelan transnational organization known for committing major international crimes such as human trafficking, drug-trafficking, arms trafficking, and money laundering, continues to terrorize communities across our nation. Following calls from members of Congress, in July 2024, the Biden-Harris Administration designated Tren de Aragua as a Transnational Crime Organization (TCO)."
