'If not an emergency, what is it?'

The flood tide of illegal immigrants crossing our southern border cannot and must not continue. Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican, has said of it, “The system is broken and overwhelmed. It is a national emergency.”

The definition of emergency might help focus attention:

“A sudden, urgent, usually unexpected occurrence or occasion requiring immediate action.”

This is an issue that should command immediate congressional action. Mr. Graham told The Washington Times that virtually every immigrant entering the country illegally over the last six months has ignored deportation orders and failed to appear at court hearings. Mr. Graham said he got his information from Immigration and Customs Enforcement Acting Director Ron Vitiello.
