U.S. Congressman Michael McCaul from Texas has expressed approval of recent reports indicating a notable decrease in illegal border crossings during the Trump administration. McCaul, who is the chairman emeritus of the House Homeland Security Committee, issued a statement highlighting the importance of enforcing laws to secure national borders.
In his statement, McCaul said, "Deterrence is back. Under the Trump administration, Americans are once again witnessing the federal government doing its job — enforcing the law to secure our border and protect the homeland." He emphasized that maintaining a strong border is crucial for national security and praised Border Patrol personnel for their efforts.
McCaul also commented on leadership and policies under President Trump as factors contributing to this reduction in illegal immigration. "The numbers don't lie: Strong leadership and tough policies are closing in on the flood of illegal immigration empowered by the Biden administration — finally making American communities safe again," he stated.
