Tennessee Representative Bruce Griffey of House District 75 filed a bill on Wednesday that proposes to relocate illegal immigrants who are in the U.S to the home state of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer.
According to Rep. Griffey's news release, illegal immigration has been one of the main issues driving voters in recent elections.
Griffey's latest bill filed today is a tactic initiated by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis - relocating illegals to the home state of individuals responsible for our border crisis.
"The Biden administration is quietly moving thousands of illegals to various states, including Tennessee, by putting them on planes and buses and transporting them in the middle of the night, and we should return them to their sender! I imagine that if we relocated them to the backyards of those responsible for allowing the flood of illegal immigration across our border, then those with federal power might be more apt to secure the border and secure it quickly," explained Griffey.
"It is incumbent upon Tennessee legislators to protect Tennesseans from the harms of illegal immigration and bad federal policies. We must fight back and that's what I'm trying to do! Tennessee should not be a repository for people coming from all over the world illegally through the southern border and landing in our state. We must focus on Tennessee citizens first - what's best for them - instead of facilitate Biden's reckless policies," Griffey continued.
"The bottom line is that illegal immigration hurts Tennesseans. According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, illegal immigration in Tennessee cost Tennessee tax payers $793 million in 2017 alone, and that number has undoubtedly risen as the Biden Administration has allowed record numbers of illegals to pour across our border. Illegal immigration also suppresses the wages of Tennesseans at the bottom of the economic scale. Furthermore, it introduces crime into our communities. With violent drug cartels controlling portions of the southern border and operating human trafficking rings, drugs are flooding across the border with the illegals and, with drugs, comes crime," stated Griffey.
"Illegal immigration is just that - illegal - and I have a responsibility to my constituents to call for the enforcement of the law. We need law and order! Instead, in my opinion, we have lawlessness that is intentionally being allowed to happen to benefit powerful, entrenched, wealthy corporate interests, who want cheap labor at the expense of national security, safe communities, and low-wage labor markets. If Tennessee bands together with Governor DeSantis and Florida and other states follow suit, we might actually be able to effect change," Griffey concluded.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
