A questioner asked why the forum keeps returning to concerns about "repeat offenders" and referenced violent crimes against U.S. children.
"Why do we keep having this conversation over and over with these repeat offenders that shouldn't be in the country that murder our American children?" the questioner said.
A meeting participant responded by blaming federal administrations for border policy, saying, "Well, it started with the Biden administration. Actually, it started way back with the Obama administration. But it's the Biden administration that opened our borders wide. And in doing so, they allowed over 20,000,000 illegal immigrants into our country, meaning that foreign countries poured all their criminals into our country so that their country would be safer." The transcript does not provide evidence supporting the numerical claim.
The exchange in the transcript is a series of statements and accusations rather than a formal presentation of data, and no witness, agency representative, or document was cited to substantiate the figure cited by the participant. The meeting record does not include a response that verified or refuted the claims, nor does it record any motion or vote on the issue.
Because the transcript contains only speakers' assertions on policy and numbers, reporting notes that the statement that "over 20,000,000 illegal immigrants" entered the country is an unverified claim made in the meeting; the text does not provide sourcing or evidence for that number.
The transcript excerpt ends after this exchange; no formal action, referral, or next step on the topic is recorded in the provided segments.
