(From Seventh District Congressman Eric Burlison)I am heartbroken by the deaths of Jesse Gilmore and Officer David Lee, two individuals in Missouri who were recently killed by illegal aliens. One of the murders happened in Joplin and the other happened in St. Louis.
These tragic deaths, along with the injury of an innocent woman, underscore the profound dangers associated with open border policies. These senseless acts of violence highlight the severe consequences of failing to secure our nation’s borders.
The Benitez brothers, along with Ramon Chavez-Rodriguez, should have never been allowed to enter our country in the first place. They must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
In 2023, half of all ICE arrests were criminal aliens. Those charges included more than 33,000 assaults and 1,700 homicides.
Jesse Gilmore and Officer Lee should still be alive today. Every crime committed by someone present illegally is a preventable crime.

Just last week, during an Oversight Committee hearing on the Biden-Harris administration's policy failures, I discussed numerous devastating cases just like this.
I am fully committed to securing our border and protecting American families from this invited invasion and ongoing crisis at our southern border.
