“The deadline to produce has passed, and CBP has failed to provide the Committee with any responsive documents, communications, or even a timeline for when CBP intends to comply with the request,” the letter mentioned.
CBP didn’t instantly reply to a request for remark.
“If CBP continues to withhold documents and communications on this matter, the Committee will consider alternative measures to obtain this information, including through the compulsory process,” Comer mentioned within the letter.
Harris has tried to distance herself from her position in dealing with the border situation for President Joe Biden, partially as a result of the border has been in disaster all through the administration with hundreds of thousands of unlawful immigrants pouring into the U.S. in slightly below 4 years.
A number of high-profile crimes dedicated by unlawful immigrants have helped push the problem to the forefront because the variety of migrants coming into the U.S. beneath the Biden administration alone has surpassed the overall inhabitants of most U.S. states.

Now, lawmakers need solutions about what precisely Harris did, or didn’t do, to deal with the border disaster.
“It is important the Committee and the American people understand Vice President Harris’s role as the border czar in the ongoing border crisis,” the letter mentioned. “The mass illegal entry and release of illegal aliens into the United States under the Biden-Harris Administration has contributed to murders, sexual assaults, and serious bodily injuries committed against numerous Americans at the hands of illegal aliens. These crimes should have never happened.”
