House Resolution No. 290.

A resolution to urge President Joe Biden to reject radical open border policies and to enforce our nation’s immigration laws.

Whereas, The United States is a nation of laws. Providing incentives and rewards to those who break our laws, including by entering our country illegally, will only incite more lawlessness; and

Whereas, Several policies to reward illegal behavior have been proposed or supported by the administration of President Joe Biden. One reported plan would pay certain illegal immigrants $450,000.00 each. Further, we have seen proposals in Congress that include provisions to extend the Child Tax Credit to illegal aliens. This could amount to a monthly payment from the federal government of $250.00 to $300.00 per child; and

Whereas, These proposals are particularly galling at a time when law-abiding American citizens continue to struggle economically. As our country continues to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, our leaders’ focus should be on the financial support of legal citizens; and

Whereas, As the United States’ Chief Executive, the President is responsible for executing our nation’s laws. Rather than providing incentives for unlawful behavior, the President’s role is to allow legal immigration, enforce immigration laws, and support the hardworking federal law enforcement tasked with securing our borders; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge President Joe Biden to reject radical open border policies and to enforce our nation’s immigration laws; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Tax Policy.
