Democratic discontent over the chaotic border grew Wednesday, with a rising party star accusing President Biden of failing to move quickly enough to head off the current surge of illegal immigrants.
Democratic discontent over the chaotic border grew Wednesday, with a rising party star accusing President Biden of failing to move quickly enough to head off the surge of illegal crossings.
Migrants waiting to rush the border have massed in Mexico. Some aren’t even waiting. The Border Patrol said it arrested roughly 9,000 illegal crossers per day over the weekend, or more than twice the average arrested just weeks ago. The Department of Homeland Security and the State Department said Wednesday that they plan to open more than 100 welcome centers in Latin America to encourage migrants to schedule border crossings rather than show up and cross on their own with the help of smugglers. Yet none of the centers is open.
The reasoning is that if they were true refugees, they would have stopped in the first safe country they reached. By continuing to the U.S., they demonstrated that they were more akin to traditional migrants seeking better jobs or reconnections with family. Neither of those is considered a valid reason for asylum.
