Migrants stand across the Rio Grande from El Paso, Texas. Thousands of migrants have illegally crossed into the city in recent days, prompting concerns from city officials.
The $4 billion funding request would fund"border management" and DHS would use it on soft-sided facilities, migrant care, transportation, processing, and the Emergency Food and Shelter program. That is part of a six-point plan the administration has released that includes surging resources to the border, anti-smuggling operations and an increased use of alternative expulsion authorities such as expedited removal.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, the White House called on Republicans to support the funding request. "If Republicans in Congress are serious about border security, they would ensure that the men and women of the Department of Homeland Security have the resources they need to secure our border and build a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system," White House Assistant Press Secretary Abdullah Hasan said.they have been encountering in recent weeks. Fox News reported on Tuesday that there have been more than 500,000 encounters already this fiscal year, which began in October.
That number is on track to outpace prior years. There were 517,000 encounters by the end of December in FY 2022, and FY 21 where there were just over 216,000 in the same period. In FY 2020, there were only 458,058 encounters for the entire fiscal year.huge migrant caravanAgents in the El Paso Sector have made 2,416 encounters in the last 24 hours.
Notice how they say border funding, not shutting the border down or building a wall, they want more money to give to illegals.
Congress would be insane to grant this request
Your tax dollars at work.
Is it to finish the wall? Hire more agents? Send people back?
Why, let them cross the river and get to where they want to go without our help! No one is going to send them back and I'm sure we are never going to see them again until they break the law and are arrested.
The surge is already here. They just haven’t been paying attention. “Too many other important things” to attend to. You know, like celebrating gay marriage and drag queens.
Man can't wait til Jan.....
What border? We don't have a border. The only place immigration is in forced is that international airports and Port authorities.
It's all part of Biden and the current White House administration's plan. To further destroy America and further hurt her American citizens.
Wow who's turn is it to lined there pockets with the American people's money 💰 🤑 💸
All they want is money and from where America is broke.
The border surge has been taking place ever since Biden took office.
Wow, only took these idiots 2 years to figure that out.
Total hypocrisy
Dorkis secure the border now before you have a few 100 migrants living in your house
Ruining America intentionally.
Alejandro Mayorkas is a fucking traitor and NEEDS to be put in prison for conspiracy to destroy America.
You dumb *ss*s. It’s not about money. Biden needs to go on national TV and tell the illegals they will be jailed and the Cartels will be eliminated.
Hunter should be in charge
Democrats now decide that there will be a surge and need BILLIONS. It's hard not to loathe the Biden Administration.
Biden=Moron
Screw the American homeless
Maybe, just maybe, they could use that money to put up a wall!!
Mayorkas is in over his head. Complete FAILURE. 👎
Removing air Marshalls to babysit illegals is bat 💩 crazy. What about AMERICANS? Does 9/11 ring a bell in that hollow head! Close the border.
