Sure it is. We can just keep sending them away to sanctuary cities and states that support this garbage.

This is what I quoted from the CBP for the year 2019:

Or 977.5k inadmissible's.

Compared to approved Asylum cases (using the Refugees & Asylees Data Table of approved Aslyum for the same year):

https://www.dhs.gov/immigration-stat...fugees-asylees



or basically 46.5k

For that year, compared to inadmissible's alone, the percentile resides in the 4 - 5% range of those accounted for that truly qualified for Asylum which is even less than what I originally quoted.

We need to stop blaming on the government and practice what we preach.

If we are not going to ID domestic workers, we should:

1) Do our lawn ourselves
2) Clean our houses
3) Make sure all the companies we hired are in compliance

If Texas can't legally make the call, then why do they have to deal with the situation???? The Biden administration decided to fling open the door, and where are the illegals going to? They're hitting the first states that they encounter, after crossing the river, that being Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas.

The United States, as a whole, is neither prepared nor equipped, to handle the invasion by millions of people. Yet the current administration has shown no intention whatsoever, of shutting the door.........

Abbott’s migrant busing has cost Texas $14 million

Abbott is basically helping them get to their destination using our tax dollars

Abbott is spending billions on the border while Texas teens held in State juvenile facilities have to pee in bottles and defecate on lunch trays because Abbott and his minions refuse to adequately fund that system.

If biden would enforce the laws on illegal immigration Abbott wouldn’t have to spend millions (not billions) bussing them out of here. It’s a pretty simple cause and effect.
