President Biden is set to visit the border on Thursday amidst growing concerns over border security and immigration policies. The recent tragic murder involving an individual who was released after crossing the border illegally has sparked outrage and calls for accountability.
National Border Council President Brandon Judge expressed frustration and disappointment with the administration's handling of border security. He highlighted the need for stricter enforcement of laws to prevent such incidents from occurring.
Judge criticized DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for what he perceives as a failure to uphold the law on the back end. He called for accountability and even supported the impeachment of Mayorkas for not taking adequate measures to ensure the safety of the public.
Governor Kemp's statement that every state is a border state underscores the widespread impact of immigration issues across the country. The urgency to address these challenges is evident, with concerns raised about the administration's delayed response and political motivations.
Despite calls for immediate action, Judge emphasized the importance of challenging existing policies such as the Flores agreement to hold individuals in custody during asylum or deportation proceedings. He also advocated for the reinstatement of the Remain in Mexico policy to deter illegal crossings.
While acknowledging the need for urgent reforms, Judge expressed skepticism about the administration's willingness to listen and implement necessary changes. The ongoing debate surrounding border security and immigration policies continues to be a contentious issue that requires prompt and effective solutions.
