WASHINGTON – Today on Fox News’ America Reports, U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) discussed how President Biden’s immigration policies are exacerbating the crisis on the border.
“They simply are making things worse, and my hope is the President will come to the border.”
“All they want to do is to blame it on the Trump Administration, when in fact they’ve dismantled those policies and made them worse.”
“The Biden Administration seems to have no interest in enforcing the law and all the signals they are sending is, if you can make it to our borders, you’re going to be able to successfully migrate into the United States regardless of what the law says.”
“We know intermixed among these unaccompanied children are sex offenders, criminal aliens, people who’ve committed very serious crimes.”
“We’ve seen people in countries of special interest, for example, that make their way into the United States. We don’t know who they are, really where they come from, what their background is, and I think that’s a potentially dangerous situation.”
