House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has strongly criticized the U.S.-Mexico Biden border deal endorsed by the Senate.

Johnson contends that Biden possesses the executive authority to address the challenges at the southern border without the need for new legislation.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, Johnson stated, “President Biden falsely claimed yesterday he needs Congress to pass a new law to allow him to close the southern border, but he knows that is untrue.”

Johnson Letters

Johnson previously sent a letter to Biden  last year in which he emphasized that the President could, and should, take immediate executive action to mitigate the crisis.

 He outlined specific steps Biden could undertake, including ending catch-and-release, halting the exploitation of parole authority, and reinstating the Remain in Mexico program. He also recommended expanding the use of expedited removal authority and resuming the construction of the border wall.
