Ricketts hits Biden again on immigration, this time from Senate floor
Same song, different stage.
That’s the bottom line as Senator Pete Ricketts calls out the Biden Administration for its immigration and border policies.
Ricketts taking to the floor of the U.S. Senate blaming the President for the influx of deadly drugs, such as fentanyl, into the U.S. from Mexico.
When he was Governor, Ricketts made the case that “every state is a border state” remarks he repeated to his fellow Senators.
“In my last two years of Governor in Nebraska, we saw what happened compared to 2020. The State Patrol confiscated two times as much methamphetamine, three times as much fentanyl, and ten times as much cocaine."
According to Ricketts, President Biden has shown he is not serious about fighting back, “His budget requested $535 million for border security technology. Yet he wants to spend 7 times that much – a whopping $3.9 BILLION dollars – on the Department of Homeland Security’s “Climate Resilience” program.”
Ricketts calls that “misplaced priorities.”
