Ricketts Comments on Biden’s “Executive Amnesty”

June 18, 2024

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-NE) issued the following statement opposing President Biden’s executive order granting amnesty to up to 550,000 illegal aliens:

“Instead of addressing the catastrophe at our border, President Biden’s executive amnesty rewards illegal aliens who broke our laws and incentivizes others to do the same,” Ricketts said. “His open borders policies have allowed in violent criminals and deadly drugs that continue to destroy families. Just this week, a Maryland mother of five was raped and murdered by an illegal alien. This catastrophe will continue until President Biden stops incentivizing illegal immigration.”
