[quote=Anonymous]Many of the immigrants you see entered legally under a TSP program (temporary protected status) which was an entry program begun by President Bush #1 I think designed to help people fleeing natural disasters.

Haiti is a mess. Venezuela is a mess (due somewhat to the Us imposition of sanctions). Thats why Harris was dispatched to South America to see what those countries could do to make conditions bettter there so feeder people wanted to leave.

That didn’t work and the volume of those who leaving only increased (the NYT had an interesting article about how the rise of social media has helped fueled this with influencers documenting journeys that inspire many others to leave)

And the volume of new arrivals to states which didn’t have to deal with immigrants before has overwhelmed their systems.

It is a problem.  We need some level of immigration especially as existing US citizens have fewer children.  But the current t volume is unsubstantial.

I wish this issue wasn’t politicized and there could be real reform.

Biden did make a mistake by opening things up too much. And then it was a clear political move to try to reverse things once this was clearly a successful issue for Trump to run on.

He received numerous letters from northern state D governors pleading for assistance. He should have treated that as a national emergency.  [/quote]
