Migrants

Illegal migrants crossing the border has been an issue since Biden took office but the problem got a lot more attention when in 2022 Texas began busing migrants to cities in the north. Texas has bused 120,000 migrants to several cities and this has put a strain on their facilities. During the Trump years 50,000 migrants entered the country each month and that increase to 160,000 per month during the first 42 months of Biden's term. Biden claimed he had no control and pushed congress to enact a law that would limit the migrants to 2,500 per day (75,000 per month). Biden said that Trump blocked this law. In May of this year Biden used a Presidential Proclamation and IFR (interim final rule) to reduce border crossings to 83,000 in June. This reduced number is expected to continue. During the Covid years millions of migrants were allowed to enter the country without being vaxed while many Americans like nurses, teachers and military people lost their jobs for refusing to be vaxed. Even the number one tennis player Novak Djokovic was not allowed into the country because he was not vaxed even though he had Covid. This kind of confusion causes people to over react and polls show that 51% favor mass deportations. As usual it is more difficult to clean up a mess than it is to create one.
