Alex Swoyer: 就最高法院扩员问题，拜登政府组建了一个委员会，该委员会旨在安抚进步派，同时延缓任何行动。由于参议院的阻挠和缺乏足够的支持，最高法院扩员法案不太可能通过。民主党进步派希望通过最高法院扩员来影响未来的选举。最高法院扩员将破坏司法独立性，甚至可能破坏宪法。H.R.1法案旨在全国范围内规范选举，这将有利于民主党。波多黎各成为美国第51个州的可能性值得考虑，但华盛顿特区的建州则存在问题。华盛顿特区的犯罪率有所上升，法规繁多，限制了居民对自身财产的处置。 Debbie Lesko: 拜登政府的移民政策导致了人道主义危机，并助长了贩毒集团的活动。她的移民法案旨在提高“可信恐惧”标准，以减少虚假的庇护申请；允许国土安全部长指定安全的第三国作为寻求庇护者等待法院日期的地方；为ICE和海关执法提供更多资源，以便他们有更多床位来拘留人员；增加移民法官数量；拘留危险的非法移民。这些措施是根据国土安全部的建议制定的。选民应该为他们的投票承担责任，并意识到他们的选择会产生后果。边境涌入的移民导致了公共卫生危机，因为许多人感染了COVID-19。开放边境政策会导致各种安全问题，包括恐怖主义。
