DHS pointed to ICE arrests of criminals like rapists from Mexico and Cuba to criticize Democrats' choices, while Republicans invited victims of crimes by undocumented immigrants.

Trump highlighted deportations and low border crossings, drawing boos when urging lawmakers to prioritize citizens over undocumented immigrants.
