During a recent Senate session address, Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) raised concerns about the allocation of resources in the ongoing national security debate, criticizing what they perceive as a prioritization of foreign wars over pressing domestic American needs.
Senator Haley began by highlighting the challenges posed by illegal border crossings, particularly at the southern border, emphasizing the need for effective border security measures.
The Missouri Republican expressed dismay at a proposed border bill that could potentially worsen the situation by granting expedited work permits to illegal migrants.
“The threat across our southern border is deadly serious,” Senator Hawley stated. “We cannot allow that to happen.”
Turning his attention to the global stage, Senator Hawley voiced apprehension about China’s growing power relative to the United States, warning against the implications of China’s ambitions to dominate economically and geopolitically.
“The threats that we face on all sides across the world are deadly serious,” Senator Hawley asserted.
