Rep. Ben Cline, R-Va., told Newsmax on Thursday night Congress is finally getting an idea of the scope of the crisis along the U.S.-Mexico border now that Republicans have regained control of the House.

Cline was part of the House Judiciary Committee's field hearing on the border crisis on Thursday in Yuma, Arizona, which, according to testimony from Yuma County Sheriff Leon Wilmot, has seen Border Patrol apprehensions of illegal immigrants in the area rise from 40 a day to more than 1,000 a day in the span of two years.

Democrats on the committee chose not to attend.
