EDINBURG, Texas (Border Report) — A GOP-only delegation of lawmakers from Washington, D.C., on Wednesday toured the South Texas border in the Rio Grande Valley, where there has been an influx in migrants entering from Mexico, and members told Border Report that they had invited Democrats from the committee but none came.
Ranking Member Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, led the seven-member group from the House Judiciary Committee on the two-day tour, which wrapped up on Wednesday with a roundtable discussion. The group also took a river tour of the Rio Grande with Department of Public Safety officials, visited with U.S. Border Patrol and toured an overcrowded migrant tent processing facility in the small town of Donna.
