Over the past weekend, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) suggested that if Republicans win full control of the federal government by 2024, significant amendments to border security and immigration issues will be initiated. In a candid conversation with Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday,” Donalds speculated about potential adjustments under a Republican-led administration.

The Congressman discussed his viewpoint stating that, “Trump had the border secured when he was President of the United States. As soon as Joe Biden’s term began, there were immediate shifts in border policy simply because they were initially implemented by Trump—a decision that has had detrimental ramifications for our nation.”

Donalds further explained what changes could be expected. The future Republican administration aims to end ‘catch-and-release’ practices and return to policies such as ‘Remain in Mexico.’ Additionally, he believes that mass expulsions are necessary due to the inability of state and city infrastructures to handle an influx of undocumented migrants.

He elaborated on this point, referencing instances where illegal aliens tried breaching security measures, attempting to scale walls in California under Washington’s lax approach towards immigration. If reelected, he assured viewers that former President Trump would reapply robust security measures and enact widespread deportations.

A concluding point made by Donalds’ was a hint towards legislative reform where considerable portions might be shifted into federal law through a bill likely H.R. 2. Given sufficient voice in both the house and senate, it is believed this would grant the President increased prerogative over national security procedures.

This recently breaking news indicates an ongoing tension within American politics concerning immigration rules and representation for different voices within the Christian worldview—balancing compassionate outreach with defense of national borders—an issue at the forefront.

In related news, Senator Rubio also echoed his support for mass deportation following concerns raised about an ‘invasion’ due to excessive illegal immigration.
