Heritage Action Reviewing House Border Proposal

Press Releases · Jul 22, 2014

Washington -- Earlier today, the House Border Crisis Working Group unveiled its recommendations to address the growing number of unaccompanied children and other unlawful immigrants crossing America's southwestern border. Heritage Action released the following statement from communications director Dan Holler:

"We are currently reviewing the recommendations and will wait until legislative text is available before commenting further, but it is difficult to overlook the glaring absence of anything related to DACA, which the House voted to block in 2012 and 2013. As we have said before, any congressional action must focus on the cause of the crisis -- President Obama's anti-enforcement policies -- not just the symptoms."
