Border States Need To Override Biden And Secure Their Own Borders

The border crisis constitutes as an invasion, threatening the safety, security, and prosperity of the American people, and states have the right to respond.

The Biden administration’s commitment to dismantling southern border protections and Trump-era policies, most recently Title 42, has exacerbated the devastating border crisis. Last March, 172,331 illegal immigrants were encountered by Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This April, CBP encountered a staggering 221,303 illegal immigrants on the southern border, reaching an unprecedented 1.06 million encounters for the first half of the 2022 fiscal year. DHS released 80,000 of those migrants into the interior of the United States.

If the federal gov't won't step up, it forces the border states to take action, even though it's a national issue. But will a deeply blue state like California do anything, or New Mexico?

@soar2newhighs Agreed. But the post addresses the need for states to step up. I like what Gov. Abbott is doing in Texas. But we know someone like Newsom won't protect the border in California. The strategy can only work if the leadership of all 4 states bordering Mexico share the same objective.

@BizSuitStacyThought you meant the feckless administration in place now.

@soar2newhighs understood. We know the Dementia-in-Chief and his cackling side kick won't do a thing. By design.
