On Tuesday, House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green, MD (R-TN) issued the following statement after the release of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) border encounter numbers for September 2024, the final month of Fiscal Year (FY) 2024:

“You wouldn’t know it from the way President Biden, his ‘border czar,’ Vice President Harris, and their defenders in the media are talking about these numbers, but this was the second-worst year in terms of inadmissible alien encounters ever—only surpassed by the all-time record Biden and Harris set just last fiscal year. In terms of official encounters, this year was a disaster. Every day, Americans are experiencing the consequences of the unchecked flow of inadmissible aliens into their communities. There are countless examples of those aliens going on to commit crimes against innocent Americans, and many of them create financial burdens for state and local governments who are already struggling to provide resources to their citizens. We simply cannot go on like this as a country. These open-borders policies have devastated our safety, security, and sovereignty. It’s time to return to policies that secured our border and our nation.”
