In response to growing public concern over migrant children being detained in Chattanooga, Senator Bill Hagerty (R) has issued a statement condemning Biden’s open border policies.
Hagerty’s states:
This inhumane crisis, which the Biden Administration generated by dismantling commonsense border security and immigration enforcement measures, was completely avoidable.
When I urged President Biden not to end the Migrant Protection Protocols, I warned that returning to a catch-and-release policy would bring the crisis to communities across the United States. Making every town a border town. A reality now being seen in Chattanooga.
Drug trafficking is on the rise across Tennessee, and most disturbingly, the well-being of minor children is now jeopardized at the hands of smugglers forcing them to make the dangerous journey north.
The Volunteer State is loving and welcoming, but no child should be put in this perilous position.
The obvious way to end the crisis is to enhance border security and enforce our immigration laws, yet the Biden Administration is doubling down on ineffectual solutions. It’s unconscionable that they are keeping our borders open.
stop all illegals froming coming into the USA
Iowa refused to take care of the migrants, saying that it was Bidens choice to invite them in and Biden should pay for the upkeep and people to take care of them.
it is not our problem, it is Bidens problem.
All states should say no . Biden created this. Let him finish the job.
I agree totally with Senator Bill Hagerty. Biden administration is using these poor children to his agenda and jeopardizing the American towns.
Demoncrats just seem bound and determined to destroy the United States of America! What a shame! I’m 73 years old and I truly believe we have seen the best of our country. I don’t think we will be able to recover from this administration’s horrible policies.
Our children are being propagandized in our schools, on social media, in the mainstream media in general, and everywhere else into believing Socialism is a good thing. It is NOT! We are a Capitalist country built on the premise of freedom, not slavery to the government!
And now the demoncrats are trying to flood our country and our state with these illegal (hello, key word illegal) immigrants that are going to suck up all the benefits they can and thereby destroy our country economically. Talk about killing the goose that layed the Golden Egg! I say again, shameful! Stand up and speak out. Vote these fools out of office!
Condemning China Joe is useless. I want to see Republicans actually do something about it besides ” condemning ” China Joe . Get a backbone and arrest these people that are harboring these illegal aliens and send these illegals back to where they come from and those that aid and abet into prison. Talk is cheap; I want to see some action for once.
Refuse them entry to Tennessee, Bill Lee! Show some backbone! This is not Tennessee’s problem!
Pass a bill in Tennessee to stop taking illegals that broke our laws.
I agree with the email above. I work in the healthcare industry and I am daily exposed to the resources that illegals consume. Add to that education, food, housing and the stress on law enforcement. Our state has it’s own population of citizens that need help. If we have the option of refusing illegals, let’s do so!
