On Wednesday, February 26, sheriffs, state legislators and citizens from across the country will be coming to Washington, D.C., to meet with Members of Congress to discuss the consequences their communities have faced from the over 10 million illegal border crossings over the last four years. Attendees will be demanding that Congress act swiftly on its mandate to fully fund border security efforts and pass real immigration reforms to prevent future administrations from implementing an open-borders agenda.
