This would include public elementary schools, public secondary schools, and institutions of higher education. “The House passage of this bill sends a clear message to the Biden Administration and cities across the country that the safety and education of students comes first. Our schools won’t be used to clean up President Biden’s border crisis,” said Congresswoman Houchin. On Wednesday, Congresswoman Houchin managed the rule for the consideration of the bill on the House Floor.

We learned that over 2,500 migrants are pouring into New York City weekly, with over 87,000 migrants arriving since last spring, it is obvious that action must be taken. These statistics from our larger cities preview what could happen across the country if action is not taken,” said Congresswoman Houchin in the floor remarks.	1	2026-03-30T01:40:41Z	2026-04-08T00:18:03Z
