McCaul Statement on MS-13 Gang Leader’s Arrest

March 27, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Congressman Michael McCaul (R-Texas) — chairman emeritus and current vice chair of the House Homeland Security Committee — released the following statement on the Trump administration’s arrest of a top MS-13 gang leader. “Over the past four years, our nation saw a resurgence of violent gangs like MS-13, as President Biden’s weak and irresponsible immigration policies enabled aggravated criminals to roam freely in our communities. The swift apprehension of this dangerous MS-13 leader demonstrates, yet again, that President Trump's border security policies are both effective and essential in keeping dangerous criminals off our streets. Americans can breathe a sigh of relief, knowing his administration will stop at nothing to make our communities safe again." ###
