Arizona Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego called out President Biden's DHS for dragging their feet on helping border communities in his state and other border states.
Grand Canyon State Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego has been an outspoken critic of the Federal Emergency Management Administration's Shelter and Services Program funding model for border communities amid the immigration crisis., the White House Office of Management and Budget sent the congressman's office a breakdown of their FY24 budget request.
"They need federal support, and at this point, from what we’ve heard from DHS and local leaders, the supplemental package will not get them funding on the scale we need," Gallego said. Gallego's office has also been in contact with Arizona border communities to maintain a pulse on the ground situation.
Local governments have also taken on added responsibilities due to under-staffing at CBP, such as Pima County doing health screenings to prevent the spread of diseases like monkeypox and tuberculosis.
