Biden's Border Crisis is Worse Than Ever

The Worst December in DHS History: 178,840 illegal immigrants were apprehended attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border, making this the highest total for December in DHS history.
  • Nearly two million: That's how many illegal immigrants Border Patrol has caught attempting to cross the border since Biden took office.
  • 11,921: The number of unaccompanied children Border Patrol encountered just last month.
  • Roughly 500,000: The estimated number of illegal immigrants that have escaped into the U.S. without apprehension. We may never know who these individuals are or where they went.
The root cause: Biden's failed policies created the crisis at the southern border. Biden has:
Bottom line: Biden's refusal to secure our border has tragic consequences. Illegal drugs are pouring into America, with fentanyl overdoses becoming the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45. Open borders bring human trafficking, violence, and abuse to our doorstep.

But Biden still hasn't visited the border. He doesn't care.
Red State Recovery: GOP Policies Work

Red State Rebound: Newly released December Data from the Labor Department confirms that Republican governors and legislatures are leading the way in getting Americans back to work.

The numbers don't lie:
  • 16 of the top 20 states for jobs recovered since the coronavirus pandemic began are led by Republican governors.
  • 18 of the top 20 states for jobs recovered have Republican-controlled legislatures.
  • The top nine states for jobs recovered are all led by Republicans.
  • The top 10 states with the lowest unemployment rates are all led by Republicans.
"Republican governors and legislatures deliver results, while Biden and Democrat governors are leaving Americans behind," said RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel. "Despite reckless spending, skyrocketing prices, and forced mandates, Republican commitments to commonsense, conservative economic policies are leading the way."

While red states put Americans back to work, Democrats' job-killing policies and economic lockdowns are destroying their states.
Expanding the Party, Investing in Communities

The Republican National Committee is continuing to grow the Party, invest in communities, and mobilize support ahead of the midterms.
  • This week, the RNC opened two new Community Centers - part of the RNC's multimillion-dollar minority engagement effort and long term investments in communities.
Houston, Texas: The RNC opened its fourth Hispanic Community Center in Texas, and 8th across the county.
  • As Hispanic voters continue to shift to the Republican party, our community centers are forging the way for voters to be heard, engaged, and involved.
Robeson County, North Carolina: The RNC opened its first Native American Community Center. After seeing gains in Native American communities in 2020, the RNC is ensuring to continue to grow the Party in 2022 and beyond.

"The new community center - the first Native American office that the RNC is opening anywhere in the U.S. this election cycle - is the crown jewel of the approach," reported the Indigenous Wire.

RNC Celebrates School Choice Week
 
This week, the Republican Party joined thousands of families and teachers across the country in celebrating freedom in K-12 education.

Escape route: School choice empowers students - especially those trapped in failing districts - to find the learning environment that best suits their needs.
  • Thanks to school choice laws, students all over America have taken advantage of charter school, private school, homeschool, distance learning, voucher, and open enrollment options.
  • Minority and low-income students are some of the biggest beneficiaries and supporters of school choice.
Families first: The Republican Party believes parents - no government bureaucrats - best understand their child's academic needs.

Standing with students: the RNC will always defend and support the expansion of school choice all over the country, ensuring that every child has access to the education that fulfills their needs.

 
SCOTUS Vacancies and Thinly Veiled Intentions
 
  • We know exactly who Joe Biden is going to nominate to the Supreme Court: a left-wing, radical, activist judge.
    • Disgustingly, Biden has openly said that the only other qualifications for his nominee are to be race (black) and gender (woman).
  • Regardless, this radical, activist judge will not stand up for Americans' Constitutional rights.
    • Biden will nominate a judge who is a threat to religious liberties, the Second Amendment, the right to life, and free speech.
  • Unfortunately, we're too familiar with progressive activist judges here in NC.
    • Democrats on the N.C. Supreme Court are beholden to radical activists groups that helped elect them.
      • For instance, Justice Anita Earls is the founder of the Southern Coalition for Social Justice, a Woke advocacy group with a radical agenda.
      • Her resume is replete with radical activism attacking election integrity, calling opponents racist, and exploiting the judiciary to advance the Left's agenda.
      • That's why Eric Holder and his friends spent $250,000 to get her elected, so she could continue her activism from the bench in the redistricting case and others.
      • "Nobody can argue with a straight face that Justice Earls will rule impartially on a case argued by her former law partner and funded by her campaign megadonor against the same group they spent years suing. This is dangerous territory for the judiciary." - NC Sen. Amy Galey (R-Alamance)
      • This is the end game of Democrats' 'Sue til Blue' strategy.
    • This is exactly what Biden and the Democrats intend to do to the Supreme Court of the United States.
  • President Trump and Republicans successfully delivered three Constitutionalist judges to the Supreme Court - Biden and Democrats will do anything they can to undo this accomplishment. Even pack the court.
    • Democrats unsuccessfully tried to smear President Trump's appointees, particularly Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.
  • We know this will be a fight - Democrats don't have a single vote to spare in the Senate.
    • Republicans will fight to defend Americans' Constitutional rights, expose Biden's nominee, and hold Senate Democrats accountable for their vote. We will do everything we can to stop Biden's radical nominee.
    • This constant threat to individual rights from progressive activists judges reinforces how critical it is for Republicans to win control of the U.S. Senate in 2022, and that means keeping a Republican in the Senate seat from North Carolina is absolutely vital.
  • Chairwoman McDaniel's Statement on Biden's Supreme Court Remarks.

North Carolinians deserve to have trust in elections, the utmost confidence their ballot is protected, and their vote counts. That's why the N.C. Republican Party has established a statewide Election Integrity Committee. Join the Election Integrity Team in North Carolina
