Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) has condemned the murder of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employee Lauren Bullis on social media, calling it "a tragic and senseless act of violence."
Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin reported the murder, describing how Bullis, an auditor with DHS, was brutally murdered in Georgia by Olaolukitan Adon Abel, who was born in the United Kingdom and naturalized by the Biden Administration in 2022.
"Since President Trump took office, @USCIS has implemented measures to ensure individuals with criminal histories and who otherwise lack good moral character do not attain citizenship," Secretary Mullin posted, noting that Abel had an extensive criminal record for acts such as vandalism, sexual battery, assault with a deadly weapon, and battery against an officer.
Abel also stands accused of murdering another woman and shooting a homeless man multiple times.
"These acts of pure evil have devastated our Department, and my prayers are with the families of the victims," Mullin concluded.
In response to Mullin's tweet, Rep. Biggs replied, "A tragic and senseless act of violence, which was made possible by the Biden Administration's dereliction of duty with the rule of law on so many fronts."

"My prayers are with the family members of Lauren Bullis, her friends, and colleagues at DHS. May she rest in peace," Rep. Biggs added.
In March, the Arizona congressman torched sanctuary city policies during a House Judiciary Committee markup of the Shut Down Sanctuary Policies Act, a bill which would prohibit state and local authorities from refusing to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and withholds federal funding from cities or states that refuse to comply.
"These are not policy disagreements," he emphasized. "These are public safety failures. These are bad policy failures. These are bad leadership... more than 200 sanctuary jurisdictions openly defy federal law. They nullify federal authority and practice while demanding federal funding. In return, there is no obligation for the federal government to continue funding these sanctuary jurisdictions."
