Missouri Senator Johs Hawley is not happy about reports that the Biden Administration closed 350,000 asylum cases, resulting in what Hawley is calling “de facto amnesty.”
Hawley wrote a letter to Biden’s DHS.
“I write with alarm that your Department once again appears to be circumventing its duty to enforce immigration laws,” Hawley wrote in his letter to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), condemning the organization for “granting de facto amnesty to hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants.”
“These migrants are then no longer required to check in with authorities and can pursue other avenues to obtain legal status and remain in the country,” the Senator continued. “Let’s be clear: granting mass amnesty to illegal migrants contradicts any Biden Administration claim that it is now somehow getting ‘tough’ on the border. You must immediately reverse course and put an end to your covert mass amnesty program.”
“In other words, you have created a mass de facto amnesty program that shields migrants from deportation,” Hawley went on to add that the move “poses grave threats to the safety and security of the American people.”
Hawley spoke with Fox News about Biden’s mass amnesty play.
Watch the clip below:
Come to find out, Biden has dropped at least 350,000 asylum cases so illegals can stay in the country. This is MASS amnesty.
That’s *on top of* the 9 million illegals he’s already let it.
