Biden administration ignores Texas border towns impacted by disastrous immigration policies
The mayor of the small Texas town at the center of the migration crisis says he has yet to hear from the Biden administration about its plans for ending the border policy known as Title 42, despite the government's claim that it is working with local officials.
“Nobody has reached out to me or to the city. I haven't heard from anyone,” said Eagle Pass Mayor Rolando Salinas.
“I wish our federal government stepped up even a little more just to give us some direction, or I would like to hear a plan as to what they're doing to counter the possibility of a surge in people on the border. I think we deserve that — as border mayors, as people living in the United States — an explanation,” said Salinas, who began his first term last year.

"It's not really a plan to prevent a massive influx of people to come into the United States. It's more of how they're going to do it — to facilitate increasing capacity at the [nongovernmental organization]," Salinas said. "You're making it so efficient. ... It's like counterproductive."
Approximately 2,000 noncitizens are illegally entering the United States from Mexico daily around Eagle Pass, but only half are able to be taken into custody, he said. Of the 1,000 people that border officials are able to intercept each day, about half are released and allowed to remain in the U.S. as they await a resolution to their immigration case.

Biden doesn't care about the disaster he is perpetuating on the border and within the US with his awful open borders policies. He just does not care about the American citizens having to deal with the invasion he prompted.
