WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (AL-03), today signed on to an Amicus Brief in support of the State of Texas’ efforts to secure the US-Mexico border. Texas has been in a legal battle with the Biden Administration over Texas’ constitutional right to repel the invasion at their southern border. In the year 2023, 2.5 million migrants entered the country through the US-Mexico border, averaging 10 thousand per day.

“I was glad to sign on to this Amicus Brief in support of the State of Texas’ efforts to secure their southern border and stop the invasion of illegal migrants,” said Rep. Rogers. “I remember when President Obama’s own Secretary of Homeland Security stated that 1 thousand illegal border crossings per day was a crisis. I guess Joe Biden forgot his fellow cabinet member stating that, as his administration is now fighting to sustain policies that allow an estimated 10 thousand illegal border crossings per day. There is an invasion at our southern border, the Biden Administration is totally unwilling to address it, and the State of Texas has been left with no choice but to defend the border itself. Alabama stands with Texas, and I am wholeheartedly supportive of Governor Abbott’s efforts.”
