According to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis), Congress and the public are being kept in the dark about the number of illegal migrants and border crossers being allowed into the country by the Department of Homeland Security.
Johnson stated to Breitbart News, that Alejandro Mayorkas, Homeland Security Secretary, has not responded to Senator Johnson’s Oct. 19 request regarding the number of illegal immigrants who were resettled in the U.S. by President Joe Biden.
Johnson wrote to Mayorkas, without a response:
”How many aliens have been transported by either DHS or contractors to a final destination by plane, train, and bus throughout the country since January 1, 2021? … I request that you provide updates to these figures on a monthly basis. Please provide this information as soon as possible but no later than November 2, 2021.”
Johnson is persistent and issued a new request for information to Mayorkas with a Nov. 19 deadline.
”The Biden administration’s failure to act on intelligence to secure our borders and implement policies to prevent future migrant surges will result in more migrants overwhelming our southern border. In fact, reports indicate another surge of potentially 60,000 migrants are making their way to the southern border. Other reports suggest that an additional caravan will embark for the southern border imminently.
”Our border is being overrun, placing our brave Border Patrol agents in an impossible situation.”
Johnson added more oversight requests Nov. 5 Mayorkas, which includes:
- “When did DHS learn that the 30,000 migrants who had gathered in Del Rio, Texas were headed for the southern border?” Please share any intelligence or other information that may be related to the thousands of migrants who arrived in Del Rio, Texas in September 2021.
- Please provide the names and titles for all DHS officials that reviewed or received intelligence or information regarding the possible travel of thousands more Haitians to the Southern Border in July 2021.
- “Why did DHS delay the deportation of Haitian migrants who illegally entered Texas from Haiti in September?” Please send all communications and documents relating to this decision.
- “Please send any intelligence or information DHS has regarding the reported caravan of 60,00 migrants planning to travel to Mexico’s southern border or any other migrant caravan that is traveling or planning to travel to that border.”
