Fourth the admin should finish the Congressionally authorized construction on the wall. BP agents told me the old fencing doesnt stop migrants crossing illegally. Construction materials lay abandoned due to admin’s decision to stop the wall. Let's finish what was already paid for — PolitiTweet.org

Third, the Biden admin should renew the Migrant Protection Protocols, or Remain in Mexico policy, to stem the tide of migrants released into the US with no court date. — PolitiTweet.org

Second, we should return to rapid asylum claim adjudications on the border to deter migrants coming for economic reasons and stop false asylum claimants from getting into the country. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

First, and foremost, the Biden admin should enforce our immigration laws and give overwhelmed Border Patrol agents & our Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officials the resources they need to complete their national security mission. — PolitiTweet.org

The Biden administration has the authority to end the crisis they created at our southern border. Last night, I laid out 5 actions he should take to fix this border crisis. https://t.co/gMn6P6vfF2 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I heard directly from Border Patrol agents last week who said this surge is overwhelming them. Resources are strained, endangering not just these unaccompanied children, but also the security of our own border. https://t.co/kBGxO0nXR9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Actions speak louder than words & the actions of the Biden admin were clear. Their abrupt moves to dismantle the previous admins immigration policies w/out replacing new ones to discourage unlawful migrations gave the green light for tens of thousands to cross our southern border https://t.co/fzcQe9oQeZ — PolitiTweet.org

Given its long-running financial struggles the Postal Service is in desperate need of legislative reform. I'll be closely reviewing the plan proposed today & will continue to work on bipartisan postal reform that protects service for #Ohio & the US & puts USPS on a stable footing — PolitiTweet.org

Jane and I are heartbroken by the tragedy yesterday in Boulder, CO. Our deepest sympathies are with the families of the victims. https://t.co/UpHXyWV5h8 — PolitiTweet.org

Harriet Beecher Stowe is one of America’s most celebrated abolitionists and civil rights activists. Her house in Cincinnati, OH—which is currently open to the public as a museum—serves as a monument to her enduring legacy & transformative impact on society. #WomensHistoryMonth — PolitiTweet.org

Many thanks to the Ohio State Highway Patrol (@OSHP) for their efforts to keep these lethal drugs off our streets and out of our communities. https://t.co/DYm9ryJotv — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This is just one of the many reasons why we must work to immediately address the ongoing crisis at the southern border. As I heard from Border Control last week, these numbers don’t include everything that slips through into our communities, taking lives in Ohio & across the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Important update: families and businesses will now have until May 17th, 2021 to file their 2020 taxes. https://t.co/nuzw3XSP3k — PolitiTweet.org

Law enforcement officers put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe. We need to have their backs, as well. And that means prosecuting those criminals who intentionally target police officers to the fullest extent of the law. — PolitiTweet.org

I appreciated the opportunity to speak with @SecMayorkas on my trip to the border about the ongoing crisis of migrants and unaccompanied children making the dangerous journey north and what more could be done. https://t.co/cWftTeHN0l — PolitiTweet.org

Tariffs are an important and effective tool we can use to hold countries accountable for violating our trade laws. But we must ensure they are always employed in a way that protects American jobs and strengthens the U.S. economy. https://t.co/5WWp3DqF8b — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This morning on @FacetheNation, I urged the Biden admin to address the ongoing crisis at the southern border. The Border Patrol agents I spoke with this week on my trip to El Paso are overwhelmed and need all the resources we can provide. https://t.co/GWm4B1kVA5 — PolitiTweet.org

Hateful acts or discrimination against Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders have no place in America and must be condemned. — PolitiTweet.org

Talked to @GriffJenkins on my border trip to El Paso this week. We had the opportunity to talk to some of the people who were apprehended, & they all told me the same thing, which is that they’re going to continue to try to come for the better economic opportunities in the USA. https://t.co/cG02ZYBXqn — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

More children & their families are making the dangerous trip north overwhelming the immigration system. Policy changes are needed. https://t.co/kP4i2yTzOY — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I heard from multiple agents during my trip to the border that they are concerned about the rapid increase in unaccompanied children, up 62% from Jan to Feb, and only expected to grow as we head into the warmer months. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

After seeing the crisis at our border firsthand, it's evident that we must step up efforts to collaborate w/ international partners - esp. Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras & El Salvador - to discourage migration & provide safer alternatives to making the dangerous journey north. https://t.co/cA96ZJIcAq — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Looking forward to joining @FaceTheNation with @margbrennan tomorrow morning to talk about what I saw on along the border in Texas and New Mexico on Thursday & Friday. https://t.co/RNnRnNdPLM — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I want to thank every hard-working member of the U.S. Border Patrol as they deal with the growing crisis at our southern border. We owe them the resources to do their job effectively and to help retain the many well-trained agents who serve. https://t.co/IctWSeCSUY — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The crisis at our southern border is clear. The Border Patrol needs more resources to do their jobs safely & effectively. https://t.co/9DkX8nN06t — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

During my trip to El Paso this week, I visited an area near the Monument Three border section & was able to see the difference between the new wall sections & temporary wall sections left unfinished due to the Biden Administration’s executive order. https://t.co/7J09A5wyDv — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

However, I’m deeply troubled by the urgent crisis on our southern border due to the influx of unaccompanied kids and Border Patrol’s urgent need for increased support and resources. Urging the Biden admin to address this crisis now. — PolitiTweet.org
