U.S. Rep. Troy Nehls has sent a third letter to U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas regarding violent criminals being released from prisons, embedding themselves into migrant caravans, and coming into the United States.
According to a press release on Friday, the letter, co-signed by U.S. Reps. Byron Donalds (R-FL), Randy Weber (R-14), and Pete Stauber (R-MN) pressed Mayorkas to stop Venezuelans from entering the United States, deport those released into the country who are awaiting immigration proceedings, and implored him to initiate a complete and total moratorium on all Venezuelan immigration until Venezuela agrees to cooperate with deportation requests.
“Time after time, I have urged Secretary Mayorkas to protect the American people from the danger posed by violent criminals from Venezuela who are entering our country,” said Nehls. “How many more Americans have to die at the hands of illegal aliens before the Biden-Harris Administration takes my letters seriously?”
