I am fighting to fix this broken system and restore security at our southern border.
Fix the broken immigration system and restore security at the southern border.
Occurrences
I also remain steadfast in my commitment to ensure a stable, reliable, and legal agriculture workforce... and am fighting to restart construction of the southern border wall.
Evidence
Dan Newhouse wants to defund all sanctuary cities, fully secure our border, build a wall on the southern border, and fix our dangerous immigration system.
The House voted on ordering the previous question for consideration of H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act, and the roll call record shows Rep. Dan Newhouse voting Yea on the procedural question. The measure concerned consideration of a border-security bill.
Roll Call 209 records passage of H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act, and Roll Call 208 records the motion to recommit. Newhouse voted on the border-security package in the House, where the bill passed the chamber.
Rep. Newhouse said he was proud of 'the work we have done in securing critical investments for a secure border' and that the legislation 'refocuses the Department of Homeland Security on its fundamental mission: ensuring the safety of Americans and secure national borders.'
'I am fighting to fix this broken system and restore security at our southern border.' The page also says he supported H.R. 2, advocated keeping Title 42 in place, and is fighting to restart construction of the southern border wall.

Assessments
Newhouse made concrete same-term efforts toward the promise, including supporting H.R. 2, voting to advance and pass House border-security legislation, advocating Title 42 continuation, border-wall construction, and DHS border-security appropriations. However, the promised outcome was broad and substantive: fixing the immigration system and restoring security at the southern border. The evidence shows advocacy, House-side legislative activity, and appropriations support, but not enactment or completion of a comprehensive immigration fix or restored border security. Because there was a serious legislative effort but the promised outcome was not delivered, this is best scored as never with an effort badge.
Newhouse made concrete legislative and advocacy efforts toward the promise, including supporting H.R. 2, backing procedural votes to advance border-security legislation, and voting for Homeland Security appropriations framed around border security. However, the evidence does not show the promised outcome was achieved: the immigration system was not shown to be fixed, nor was southern border security restored in the broad sense promised. House passage, appropriations votes, and issue-page advocacy are serious attempts but fall short of fulfillment.
