Rep. Barry Moore: Border encounters under Biden equal to population of Alabama

Washington, D.C. - Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) participated in the House Judiciary Committee's first hearing of the 118th Congress titled "Biden's Border Crisis: Part One." Moore, while chairing the hearing, focused his questions on the criminal cartels who profit from the open southern border at the expense of migrants, their families, and the American people. Moore also recalled an experience with federal agents at the border during his visit to Fort Bliss, Texas.

"I actually started videoing buses with young people being shipped all over the country. They seized my phone on-site," said Moore, who has been to the southern border twice since joining Congress. "They did not want any record of young unaccompanied minors being shipped to Google addresses in the U.S. I asked the admiral on sight, 'sir, can you tell me where we are shipping these children to?' His response to me was 'we're just building the bus as we drive.' They have never seen the kind of influx of youth that we're seeing coming here unaccompanied.

"We're not doing background checks on who we're shipping them to. We are shipping these children to Google addresses instead of back home to their country. Who knows what happens to those minors in this country."
