House Republicans, led by Texas Rep. Chip Roy, are demanding an updated report from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regarding the number of illegal aliens in the U.S. Their concerns stem from outdated data and recent estimates suggesting a significant influx of illegal entries since President Biden took office.
The letter to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas outlines specific data requests, including updated population estimates, numbers of border evasions, visa overstays, and details on aliens released into the U.S. interior.
This bipartisan effort emphasizes transparency and accountability in immigration data, reflecting ongoing debates on policy and enforcement measures. Lawmakers are working to address challenges posed by illegal immigration while ensuring border security and informed policy decisions.
