The Blackburn Report: Biden’s Border Crisis Is A National Security Crisis

- October 28, 2022

The numbers are in, and things aren’t looking good for Joe Biden at the southern border. Just when it seemed impossible to outpace last year’s record, fiscal year 2022 delivered more than 2.37 million migrant encounters. Even more concerning, the record number of potential terrorists and gang affiliates trying to make their way into the United States. These staggering statistics do not begin to cover the known and unknown “gotaways” that escaped into our country undetected. This catastrophic border crisis will soon turn into a national security nightmare if the Biden administration refuses to act.

	On the road again! It was a treat to visit several businesses in Chattanooga this past week, including The Barn Nursery, Innside Restaurant, and University Surgical Associates. I also stopped in at Precision Machining, where they manufacture critical components that help our military protect and defend the country. It is paramount that we keep manufacturing in the United States of America!
