(FOX NEWS) — Border czar Tom Homan fired back at Texas Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett over her recent claim that illegally entering the U.S. is “not a crime” despite being in violation of federal law.
“It’s a crime to end the country legally under title 8, United States Code 1325, and it’s really pathetic that any member of Congress doesn’t understand what the law says,” Homan said Monday on FOX Business.
“They broke the law…” he continued. “It is a criminal violation to enter the country illegally. If you’ve entered a prior, it’s a felony. I’ve been saying this for I don’t know how long… it’s a crime to enter this country, and we’re going to enforce those laws.”
