Luttrell Introduces Legislation to Protect Borders from Armed Invaders

WASHINGTON – Congressman Morgan Luttrell (R-TX) introduced the Defend Our Borders from Armed Invaders Act in the United States House of Representatives. This legislation would authorize the National Guard to escalate force as necessary to repel an armed individual attempting to illegally cross the United States border from Mexico.
 
“Cartels and smugglers are thriving at our wide-open border,” said Congressman Luttrell. “We’re seeing violent crime continually escalate at the border and flow into our communities, as President Biden’s policies have created an untenable national security crisis. This legislation is a step in the right direction to reign in this crime by providing the National Guard the power to stop these armed individuals from crossing into the United States by any means necessary.”
 
This legislation is cosponsored by Representatives: Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN), Chuck Edwards (R-NC), Brian Babin (R-TX), Michael Guest (R-MS), Mike Collins (R-GA), and Brandon Williams (R-NY).
