The head of the House Judiciary Committee is calling for more information about two Jordanian nationals who breached a military base in Virginia earlier this month.
"It was at that time, one of the military police officers noticed the driver, ignoring the direct instructions of the officers, continued to move the vehicle past the holding area and attempted to access Marine Corps Base Quantico," spokesperson Capt. Michael Curtis said in a statement. Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

Officials later turned them over to ICE after their arrest for trespassing. ICE officials said this week that one of the nationals crossed into the U.S. illegally in April in California before being released on his own recognizance. The other was a foreign student who entered the U.S. in September 2022 and whose visa status was terminated in January.
