In a surprising display of bipartisanship, politicians in Laredo, Texas, united to address not just international bridge permits, but also the pressing issue of the border crisis. Senator Ted Cruz and Congressman Henry Cuellar came together in a joint press conference to shed light on the catastrophic situation unfolding at the southwest border.
Both lawmakers expressed their concern over the sharp disagreement between the Biden administration and the majority of Texans regarding border security. Congressman Cuellar stressed the need for additional support staff to be hired for border agents, as he believed it was unfair for them to be burdened with tasks like making sandwiches and distributing diapers to migrants.
