Murphy Slams Republicans For Not Fixing Border Issues, Urges Biden To 'Go On The Offense'

Sen. Chris Murphy criticized Republicans for not seeming to want to resolve border issues following the collapse of a bipartisan agreement that Murphy assisted in arranging.

" I think the president and Democrats should go on the offense because the vast majority of the country believes that we should have robust legal immigration but they want tighter control of the border. And right now, there's only one party that can deliver that -- only the Democrats support pathways to citizenship, support expanding legal pathways into the country and a tough border law," Murphy, told ABC News.
