Americans have lost an average of $10,000 per household due to higher energy costs since the Biden-Harris Administration took office.2
The U.S. has experienced a surge in illegal border crossings, and the situation has only worsened. Under the Biden-Harris Administration, there have been over 10.3 million total inadmissible alien encounters 1 recorded by the U.S. Border Patrol, and over 85% of these illegal aliens have been released into the U.S. 2 Additionally, over 120,000 total Chinese nationals have entered the US during the Biden Administration, many of whom are military age men.
As a result, the number of convicted-criminal-alien encounters — including assaults, rapes, and homicides — have spiked during the Biden-Harris Administration. 3 Additionally, the number of terrorists trying to cross the border has skyrocketed. During three years under the Biden-Harris Administration (fiscal 2021, 2022, and 2023), Border Patrol encountered 286 terrorist watchlist hits. 4
The Biden-Harris Administration has resulted in a record number of illegal immigrants flooding over the border. 5 During the Biden-Harris Administration, only 4.4% of illegal aliens encountered at the borders have been removed.6
The Biden-Harris Administration cannot find over 85,000 children 7 it has released to sponsors, and managing the staggering flow of family units and children is consuming so much of DHS’s resources that our other security missions at the border are suffering. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection estimates that 40 percent 8 of its agents on the southwest border have been diverted to deal with the humanitarian needs of children and families.
The sharp increase in illegal immigration since January 2021 has led to an increase in crime across the country. In many cases, the criminal aliens were present not in spite of federal, state, or local policy but because of intentional policy choices.
The Biden-Harris energy policies are leaving Americans with higher costs and a weaker economy. They have weakened American energy security and emboldened China.
The Biden-Harris policies have moved away from energy independence and left Americans in a place of weakness with overbearing regulations and restrictions.
The Biden-Harris Administration has made it more difficult for oil and gas companies to frack on public lands.1
The Biden-Harris energy rules and regulations have cost U.S. taxpayers $1.37 trillion since Biden and Harris took office. 2
The Biden-Harris Administration’s burdensome regulations, tax hikes, and spending have fueled the increased cost of living and put working Americans under stress.
Americans have paid over 40% more for gas every time they fill up since Biden and Harris took office. 3
The Biden-Harris Administration intentionally sought policies and personnel who they knew would cut domestic production of and access to fossil fuels.
Since Biden and Harris took office in January 2021, Americans have faced increasingly higher prices for food, gasoline, and other common household items. And while prices have been going up, wages have been going down, placing additional stress on family finances. 1 Monthly mortgage payment on a median-price home has increased a stratospheric 115% 2 and grocery prices are up over 30%. 3
Federal spending has grown rapidly over the last decade, leading to substantial budget deficits that have crippled the economy and financially harmed Americans. The Biden-Harris Administration has used executive orders, regulatory actions, and administrative decisions to steer large volumes of taxpayer-funded resources to radical ideological causes and to impose greater federal control over the nation and economy.4
Under the Biden-Harris Administration, inflation is up roughly 20%. 5 The Biden-Harris Administration was handed inflation at 1.4%. Just 1 1/2 years after the Biden Administration took power and began implementing its radical agenda, prices were rising about as much in a single month as they did in the entire year before Harris was sworn in as vice president. 6
Since the Biden-Harris administration took office, the federal debt has exploded by over $7 trillion. The Treasury has burned through about another $1 trillion in cash reserves for a total cumulative deficit of over $8 trillion. By January 2025, that number will breach $9 trillion, according to the Biden-Harris Administration’s own estimates. 7
The CBO now expects the debt to be $7.2 trillion higher than it had projected when President Trump left office—all because of the Biden-Harris administration’s reckless spending policies. 8
Despite overwhelming opposition, Vice President Harris has been a long-time supporter of letting biological men compete in female sports.1 In a recent poll, 73% of respondents opposed men in women’s sports. 2
“We have to stay woke. Like everybody needs to be woke. And you can talk about if you’re the wokest or woker, but just stay more woke than less woke.”

Harris has said the government and the private sector should treat people differently solely because of their race.4 She wants equality of outcomes, not equality of opportunities.
The Biden-Harris administration’s changes to Title IX added “gender identity” to the list of sex-based protections in federal law, consequently allowing men into women’s private spaces, athletics, and educational opportunities.
The Biden-Harris Administration supports the Equal Rights Amendment, which, if enacted, would permanently let men compete in women’s sports and enter female-only spaces such as restrooms and locker rooms. Harris also has championed the proposed Equality Act, which would prohibit “discrimination” against transgender athletes, meaning, it would codify in law males in female sports. 5
FACT: The Biden-Harris Administration has frequently come out against charter schools and has placed hurdles in the way of school choice alternatives, such as vouchers, charter schools, and private schools. 1
FACT: Support for school choice is overwhelming; 75% of Democrats and 71% of all registered voters are in favor of school choice. However, the Biden-Harris Administration has failed to expand school choice, and Biden has always been against school choice. 2
FACT: The Biden Administration and Democrats have stood opposed to parental involvement in schools and even compared concerned parents to “domestic terrorists.” 3
FACT: The Biden-Harris Administration’s Department of Education has focused on providing advice to colleges on how to avoid the Affirmative Action Ban. 4 The Education Department’s new guidance also advocates for offices of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) on campus, despite the significant evidence that DEI training programs do not change individual attitudes and behavior.
FACT: The Biden-Harris Administration’s Department of Education has continually directed focus to students’ ethnicities instead of classroom safety. 5 Vandalism, out-of-control behavior in school hallways, and verbal abuse have all increased since before the pandemic. Yet the new letter from Washington redirects attention to students’ ethnicities instead of classroom safety.
The Department of Justice under the Biden-Harris Administration used spurious legal arguments to crack down on states limiting abortion. 1
When Harris was the California Attorney General, she directed her office to search the home of pro-life investigative journalist David Daleiden, who had exposed Planned Parenthood officials for selling aborted baby body parts for profit. 2
Additionally, in March 2023, the Biden-Harris Administration issued an Executive Order to weaponize federal resources and coordinate with left-wing groups to increase partisan left-wing voter registration. 3
The FBI under the Biden-Harris Administration has been suspected of tagging parents as “Domestic Terrorists” 4
Harris threatened to punish conservative nonprofit groups that refused to turn over unredacted donor information. The high court later ruled that this disclosure demand broke the law. 6 When she was a Senator, she even named the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic organization, an extremist group.
FACT: The Biden-Harris Administration is giving government-subsidized health insurance to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants.1

FACT: During her time as California Attorney General, Harris focused on using tax dollars to fund transgender surgeries for prisoners.3
The Biden-Harris immigration-driven crime wave is now in America’s suburbs and small towns with devastating results. 1
All the crimes above were only possible because open-border policies allowed the perpetrators to enter or remain in the U.S. illegally.
A 2021 Department of Justice report revealed that 64% of federal arrests in 2018 involved noncitizens, despite them comprising only 7% of the population at that time.2
For example, 3 62% of all arrests for carjackings last year in D.C. involved juveniles, and so far, 63% of this year have too.
One-third of small-business owners say increased crime is cutting into their earnings, and 7 in 10 grade President Joe Biden’s performance negatively in terms of helping small businesses.4
