Ron DeSantis: Senate Needs to Pass GOP Immigration Bills

U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., praised the GOP-led House on Friday for passing bills on immigration, while hammering the Democrat-controlled Senate.

On Friday, the House passed legislation to address the crisis at the southern border, DeSantis insisted on Monday. DeSantis said allowing the National Guard to protect the border will reduce illegal immigration. and claiming the legislation would ensure President Barack Obama would not be able to offer amnesty to illegals.

The Senate left town without doing anything to address the issue, DeSantis added. I believe the Senate should come back to Washington during the August recess to pass these measures.
