Mr. LaLOTA. Madam Speaker, ``give-up groups'' is the new term coined by our brave Border Patrol for an assembly of about 10 to 30 migrants who cross north across America's southern border, where there is no wall or barrier, and who don't even attempt to evade Border Patrol.

Rather, the give-up groups know that if they falsely claim asylum, President Biden will facilitate their parole into our country. Not only that, the Biden administration will give them a pair of Crocs, a sandwich, a sweat suit, and a plane ride to a city, like New York.

I learned about give-up groups this past weekend on my fourth trip to the southern border. This new tactic is another way the migrants are taking advantage of President Biden's terrible border policy.

Madam Speaker, to secure the border and to stop these give-up groups, President Biden should reinstate the 64 successful Trump-era border policies.
