WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Schweikert released the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives’ missed opportunity to address Congressional authority. 

“Today, the House of Representatives missed an opportunity to have an honest conversation over the vast amount of congressional authority that has been seeded to the Executive Branch in the past decade. Instead, House Democrats held a vote for show.

Securing the border is of paramount importance and urgency. We have seen the ‘Mexican Oxy’ pills that contain deathly amounts of fentanyl circulating in our children’s schools and communities all over Arizona.  We must be taking steps to stop these drugs and criminal activities from flowing into our neighborhoods.”
