Moreno Opposes “Most Conservative Border Bill In Decades,” Backed By Border Patrol Agents, U.S. Chamber of Commerce
Columbus, OH – Bernie Moreno is against “the most conservative border bill in decades” – despite the bill being backed by border patrol agents and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Moreno’s opposition to what’s been called “the most substantial border security policy in 30 years” again shows he is “not a serious person” and does not care about doing what’s right for Ohio.
“For the first time in decades, there’s a real opportunity to strengthen our border but Bernie Moreno has come out against it. The fact is law enforcement, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and Republican senators support this proposal to make America safer. Bernie Moreno likes to talk tough, but when it comes to standing up for the people of Ohio he’s nowhere to be found,” said ODP spokesperson Katie Smith.
Read what they’re saying about the bill that would “mark the first major bipartisan overhaul of the nation’s immigration system since the 1990s”:
- Border Patrol Agents: “[The bill would] drop illegal border crossings nationwide and will allow our agents to get back to detecting and apprehending those who want to cross our border illegally and evade apprehension… This is why the National Border Patrol Council endorses this bill and hopes for its quick passage.”
- U.S. Chamber of Commerce: “The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is pleased to see desperately needed border security, asylum, and immigration reforms included in the emergency supplemental funding proposal before the U.S. Senate… We look forward to working with Members of Congress to pass these common sense measures that will improve America’s security by addressing our southern border and supporting Ukraine and Israel.”
