There are 3 days left to tell DHS you support its proposed OPT fees. More than 1,000 of our members have already weighed in. Congress should enact H.R. 2315 and end OPT. Comments close Monday night: numbersusa.org/blog/opt-rule…

Congratulations to @KenCalvert on his election victory in #CA40! We appreciate his commitment to ending mass immigration, including his cosponsorship of bills to end chain migration and the visa lottery. His leadership in the House will be needed now more than ever.

Congress must codify President Trump’s border security policies into law! @chiproyTX’s H.R. 9773 would make these policies permanent, preventing a future administration from simply reversing them.
🚨BREAKING: House Freedom Caucus leadership just dropped a lame-duck roadmap for @SpeakerJohnson and @LeaderJohnThune. Strip Democrat leverage. Deliver real wins. Do it before the clock runs out. No leaving town until it’s done — let’s finish the job!

This could have gone through day one of the 119th congess.
The OPT program gives employers a 7.65% payroll tax break for hiring certain foreign graduates over Americans. Notre Dame grad student Zach Gordon explains how OPT puts his generation at a disadvantage and why Congress should pass H.R. 2315 and end it.

Understand the implications of what happened in Texas last night. Gina Hinojosa has called on Gov. Abbott to end state & local cooperation with ICE & she can order that on day one. Hinojosa voted against the 2017 SB 4 as a TX state rep. The bill was essentially a sanctuary cities ban and required TX law enforcement to cooperate with ICE detainers. She then voted against another SB 4 in 2023, which made it a state crime to cross illegally into Texas. Should there be another border crisis in coming years, there will likely be no resistance from Texas at the border. No Texas DPS, no TX National Guard, no razor wire or water buoys, and no Operation Lone Star, which Hinojosa called a “dog and pony show” and “political theater”. Remember when 15,000 Haitians surged illegally into Del Rio, TX in 2021 under the international bridge? That was only stopped because Texas DPS responded on Abbott’s orders and physically blocked further crossings by lining up their cruisers to form a wall. The Biden Border Patrol was caught off guard and offered almost no resistance, except for some horseback agents who were falsely slandered for “whipping”. Additionally, because Republicans failed to pass any legislation codifying President Trump’s border security measures, if Dems take the White House in 2028, that Dem president could, if he/she wants to, reverse every single Trump border security policy immediately upon taking office because they were all done at the executive level, and they can order Border Patrol to go back to a passive catch & release policy like we saw under Biden.

The exit polling shows no mandate for dismantling, defunding, or abolishing immigration enforcement... But there is a group within the Democratic Party that intends to push leadership to effectively stop interior enforcement. numbersusa.org/blog/election…

NumbersUSA’s Statement on the 2026 Midterm Election: Immigration policy wasn’t a decisive issue in the 2026 midterm election tonight, but the election could have a significant impact on immigration policy. Americans voted today with one issue paramount: their economic security. With a historically quiet border, immigration was not the decisive election issue that it was in 2024. Exit polling put immigration far behind the economy, and 89% of voters who prioritized immigration voted for Republicans. Overall, voters gave Republicans a 4-point advantage on immigration, the GOP’s strongest issue. Secure borders are popular. High housing costs, stagnant wages, and limited job opportunities are straining the American dream. Three decades of the largest wave of immigration in U.S. history have made each of them worse. The outgoing Republican majorities should finish the job they were sent to Washington to accomplish by codifying this secure border into law. The incoming Democratic majority should reject calls from within its party to defund or abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement. That would be an egregious misreading of this election. Instead, the next Congress should work toward a well-managed immigration system that prioritizes economic opportunity for all Americans, starting with the bipartisan reform first recommended 30 years ago: mandatory E-Verify.
