Washington D.C. – MAGA Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee held a “hearing” in Yuma today full of lies, political attacks, and conspiracy theories. Just like the Committee’s first border hearing a few weeks ago, this one was an embarrassing failure. In response, Congressional Integrity Project Senior Advisor, Brad Woodhouse, issued the following statement: 

“Today’s so-called hearing was nothing more than an unadulterated political stunt conducted by MAGA leader and Trump loyalist Jim Jordan – a person who months ago admitted that his investigations were being conducted solely for the purpose of re-electing Trump. It was so hyper-partisan that Judiciary Committee Democrats refused to lend it legitimacy by attending. Full of typical and untrue attacks and absent any comprehensive solutions to immigration or the border, this taxpayer-funded trip was clearly only about soundbites and attacks on President Biden and Democrats rather than actually fixing the border and our immigration system.” 

And in case you missed it, take a look at our mobile billboard we ran in Yuma today calling out Jim Jordan and MAGA Republicans for this pathetic stunt.
