U.S. Representative Matt Cartwright (PA-08), a member of the Democratic Border Security Task Force, joined 14 House Democrats in calling on President Biden to take executive action to restore order at the Southern border.

In the letter sent Tuesday, the Members urged the President to use all the tools at his disposal, including executive action, to better address security at the Southern border, prohibit the flow of illicit fentanyl from entering the country, and allow for orderly legal immigration efforts.

“It is well past time for both parties to come together and agree on common sense, bipartisan immigration reforms,” wrote the Members. “It has become clear that the current situation remains untenable, but with Republicans playing politics on border security, it is time for your Administration to act.”
