Bill 117 H.Res. 768 is a resolution introduced in the US Congress that condemns the Biden administration for its actions related to illegal immigration. The resolution specifically criticizes the administration for incentivizing illegal immigration by compensating illegal migrants who cross the southern border illegally.
