Republicans plan to use an upcoming congressional hearing to investigate the issue of migrants flying to Canada to then cross the northern border illegally into the U.S., House Committee on Homeland Security Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability Chairman Dan Bishop told the Daily Caller News Foundation exclusively.
The committee will hear the testimonies of two panels of witnesses Tuesday that include Republican Rep. Claudia Tenney of New York, Republican Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania, Democratic Rep. Brian Higgins of New York, Democratic Rep. Pete Stauber of Minnesota, National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd, Center for Immigration Studies Resident Fellow Andrew Arthur, Future Borders Coalition Executive Director Dr. Laura Dawson and New Hampshire Department of Safety Commissioner Robert Quinn. The hearing comes as the number of migrants crossing illegally into the U.S. via the northern border surges.
