House GOP tackles 'Biden Border Crisis' in hearing to focus on security, fentanyl
Fox News
The House Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing Wednesday on "The Biden Border Crisis," featuring a Texas judge, an Arizona sheriff, and a fentonyl awareness activist.
"There were 251,487 illegal alien encounters at the southern border in the month of December," House Judiciary Republicans tweeted earlier this week. "That’s over 8,000 per day. Over 300 per hour. Nearly 5 per minute." Ronn Blitzer is a reporter for Fox News Digital covering politics and breaking news.
That number was up from the previous month's 233,740 total encounters (204,155 unique individuals), a 1% increase from the month before, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection statistics.
