The legislation included limits to asylum protections, provisions to resume construction of the border wall, and an expansion of the qualifications for refugee status, among other changes. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo the failure here is on the part of the administration, whose policies have exacerbated the crisis,\u201d Lawler said, adding later, \u201cThis is a crisis of their own making. And it is a dereliction of duty on the part of [President] Joe Biden, [Homeland Security] Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas and frankly, [Sen.] Chuck Schumer [D-N.Y.], as the majority leader.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier Wednesday, Bates, on behalf of the White House, slammed House Republicans, arguing the conference has an \u201canti-border security record,\u201d after they obstructed Biden\u2019s border proposals and voted against border security funding. He pointed to the GOP\u2019s lack of support for Biden\u2019s supplemental funding request \u2014 which included new border security funds and funding for Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific \u2014 and the president\u2019s plans to modernize the immigration system. <\/p>\n<p>Lawler was among a delegation of around 60 Republicans who visited the southern border near Eagle Pass, Texas, Wednesday to address their concerns over the influx of migrants at the border. <\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Lawler said the lawmakers witnessed migrants crossing the border and spoke with Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents about the numbers behind the crossings. <\/p>\n<p>Senators and the White House have negotiated for weeks over a deal for border security changes that would also unlock funding for Ukraine.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo this is a real crisis that needs to be addressed, and the administration needs to take it seriously and the negations have to be in good faith,\u201d Lawler said, adding the Senate negotiations \u201cseemingly half-hearted and mealy-mouthed at best.\u201d <\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>The White House did not im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely respond to The Hill\u2019s request for comment. <\/p>\n<p>NewsNation is owned by Nexstar Media Group, which also owns The Hill. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Hill on NewsNation\u201d airs weeknights at 5 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar Media Inc.
