President Biden is once again use an executive action to bypass Congress on immigration policy there by incentivizing more people to enter our country illegally.

More broadly, the House passed an amendment also to preserve a long standing statutory prohibition on taxpayer funding for abortion at the Department of Defense. Biden and Senate Democrats are expected to oppose this measure yet once again, they want unfettered abortion ninth month, ninth hour, and they’re going to press for its removal from the defense bill. The national defense bill includes a 19.5% pay raise for our junior enlisted service members, and the measure to block liberal indoctrination that threatens to undermine cohesiveness and morale amongst our service members. But then, Biden and his Democrats will stop the whole bill just to preserve abortion. This is one area we must fight house conservatives deserve support for policies that protect the sanctity of life, combat left wing indoctrination and uplift the quality of life for our service members and their families. President Biden should set aside all his politics and do what’s best for our military and for the American people. That’s how democracy is really supposed to work. And that’s the kind of representation the American people deserve.

On Tuesday, June 18, the Biden administration unveiled a new immigration program providing a pathway to citizenship for approximately half a million immigrants who are married to American citizens but lack legal status in the United States. It is one of President Joe Biden’s most comprehensive immigration policies, and one that immigration advocates have been heavily lobbying for. Some Republican legislators, however, believe this executive action will incentivize even more illegal immigration.
Watch the video above as Straight Arrow News contributor Star Parker defends Republican concerns and argues that Biden’s border policies are all for show.

Liberals have expressed anger at Biden for supposedly enforcing stricter measures at the U.S.-Mexico border.
