As illegal migrant numbers are hitting record highs at the Southern Border and violence is rising across the United States, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Sunday blamed the problems on climate change and the Supreme Court's decision to overrule Roe v. Wade.
Even though Customs and Border Protection agents encountered nearly a quarter of a million migrants at the Southern Border in May, the highest number of monthly encounters ever, Mayorkas told ABC's "This Week": "I think that we are doing a good job. We need to do better."
He said the Biden administration is focused on working with Latin American countries to handle illegal immigration.
