A Mounting Border Crisis Demands The Biden Administration’s Attention.
An escalating border crisis has bi-partisan balls for President Biden to present solutions to solve the problems presented at the Southern border. (Politico)
“Republicans and some moderate Democrats such as Rep. HENRY CUELLAR (D-Texas) are pushing Biden to warn migrants more forcefully to not come to the U.S. or face consequences. Progressives want the president to move in the other direction and ensure that people fleeing hardship aren’t treated like criminals.
”
The Biden Administration has inherited the failed policies of the previous administration and now must devote its resources to trying to fix the problems it inherited. The Trump Administration’s policy of separating children from families was morally corrupt and against all human decency. The Biden Administration will not implement such draconian policies but has to get out ahead of the crisis to solve the problems associated with the border surge. The GOP will use the crisis as a fundraising issue but an immigration overhaul and effective border policing will go a long way to solving the border issues for the long term.
