Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) spoke on Breitbart News Saturday in an interview where he explained the actual reasons the remaining allows the southern boundary to run rampant.
Hagerty and his colleagues introduced a bill earlier this year that would have forbid illegal aliens from being counted in the census’s number, which determines how many legislative districts each position has. He continued,” They were trying to fix a problem that former President Barack Obama had raised when he removed the issue of whether or not a person is an American citizen.”
” Some people have asked themselves,’ What’s the purpose behind the murder that’s occurring at our southern boundary?'” he said, noting that” some 10 million folks” have come into the land since Biden has taken business.

” Why are they doing this devastation, fentanyl coming in? You’ve seen all the violence in the towns. We ca n’t handle this. Why would they do this? And when you realize that every single Democrat and every one senator voted against the bill I introduced that would allow the counting of illegal immigrants and illegal aliens in the distribution of parliamentary seats and electoral votes, he said, drawing the conclusion that it is” all about strength.”
” That’s the goal behind all of this. It’s all about energy. And if you think about where we’ve got big claims that are losing people quickly, large blue state like New York, Illinois, California, where have they situated the monastery places, Matt? Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Manhattan. That’s where the monastery cities are located”, Hagerty continued, noting that some Democrat politicians have admitted this.
Most Americans simply do n’t believe that when illegal aliens are included in the census ‘ proportions of congressional districts, in my opinion. That could be real. However, it is, and that’s exactly what’s been happening, and that’s why there’s been so much destruction, conflict, and determination to see our children pass away from fentanyl deaths, he said, giving a new perspective to this problem.

And that would be 13 congressional districts in and of themselves, Matt, just the 10 million people who have poured in under Joe Biden. You think about the balance of power right now in the U. S. Congress, single digits. This is very, very clear what they’re doing”, he said, emphasizing it is all about “power”.

” If it were n’t for this counting of illegal aliens, Tennessee would have another congressional seat. Many of the red states would be affected by people’s footwork and their exiting blue states. And this is all about power for the Democrats”, Hagerty said. That’s why they all voted against a bill that would prevent the use of taxpayer funds to” support the flying in of illegal aliens into our country — deep into our country.”
” Not even going to Border Patrol”, Hagerty said, adding, “flying into our country into an airport near you or me and frankly, backfilling these blue cities”.
” We’ve got to stop counting these people”, the senator added. And when we do that, we will have destroyed any motivation for the Democrats to carry out their policies at the border.
