A coalition of House Republicans, led by House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green, penned a letter to the Biden Administration on Thursday, demanding information on migrants who attempted to breach a Marine base earlier this month.

The letter, addressed to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Department of Defense (DOD) Secretary Lloyd Austin, and FBI Director Christopher Wray, sought information on the two Jordanian migrants who were reportedly in the United States illegally.

One of the migrants was allegedly on the terrorist watchlist, according to a press release from the House Homeland Security Committee. 

"The Committee fears that the Department of Homeland Security’s relaxed vetting standards, which complement President Biden’s avowed desire to 'surge the border' with inadmissible migrants, have created an environment ripe for exploitation by individuals aiming to undermine the United States at its most critical points," Green wrote in the letter. "If individuals on the terrorist watchlist are so emboldened to attempt to breach a Marine Corps base, the Department of Homeland Security and the entire executive branch must act swiftly to identify, apprehend, and detain such hostile actors on American soil.”
