Elizabeth Carter Tells Congress 10 Million Entered Under Biden After Son Died in Truck Crash

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Sep 15

Summary

  • Elizabeth Carter told Congress she is "ashamed" of Democrats' immigration policy after her son William Micah Carter and daughter-in-law Jennifer Lower were killed in a crash involving a truck driver in the U.S. illegally.
  • 16 days after the couple's wedding, their car hit a jackknifed big rig in Oregon; Carter said California had issued the driver, Rajinder Kumar, a license despite his immigration status.
  • 32-year-old Kumar, an Indian national, was later arrested by ICE after being released from an Oregon jail, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
  • The testimony fed a broader Republican push for tougher enforcement, with Rep. Brad Knott backing mass deportations and DHS last week launching a tipline to report suspected commercial driver's license fraud.
