Senator Katie Boyd Britt, a Republican representing Alabama, posted several statements on her X (formerly Twitter) account between July 28 and July 29, 2025, focusing on border security and the confirmation of presidential nominees. In her posts, she praised President Trump’s administration for its actions on immigration and criticized Senate Democrats for delaying nominee confirmations.
On July 28, Senator Britt expressed support for recent immigration enforcement efforts by the administration: “In less than 7 months, @POTUS has made historic gains securing our border and interior. I’m grateful to this administration for continuing to prioritize the safety and security of our families and communities.
We must continue to detain and deport dangerous illegal aliens.”
The following day, she addressed delays in confirming civilian nominees: “Democrats have obstructed @POTUS’ nominees at every turn. Over 100 civilian nominees have been approved by Senate Committees and still await confirmation. We have an obligation to the American people to confirm these nominees and execute President Trump’s America First Agenda. We” (July 29).
Later that same day, Britt reiterated her stance on border policy: “.@POTUS continues to Make America Safe Again. The era of open borders is OVER.” (July 29).
Senator Britt’s comments come amid ongoing debates over U.S. immigration policy and the Senate’s role in confirming executive branch appointments. Delays in confirming presidential nominees have become more common in recent years due to heightened partisanship within Congress.
