Wisconsin Congressman Tom Tiffany Discusses Immigration, Veto Powers, and Term Limits on DrydenWire Live

Published | Video Starts at 06:36

Why do you and your fellow Republican Congress colleagues refuse to prioritize immigration reform, given it's led to the current situation that has been building for decades? Yeah, I would disagree with Brian's characterization there. I was among the people that helped write the bill last session, the Secure the Border act, which was the best secure the border bill that had passed through any house of Congress. We passed it through the House and it failed in the Senate. And so we have done that, and I anticipate that we're going to do it again. (06:36–06:47)

CLAIM

Claims involvement in writing the Secure the Border Act, which he states was the best border security bill passed by any house of Congress.
