EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – An Arizona congressman is demanding answers from the Biden administration as illegal border crossings in the Tucson Sector of the U.S. Border Patrol continue to grow.
“Our U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents and officers are overwhelmed, and our border communities are overrun. For months now, the quantity of migrants crossing the border has steadily increased to record breaking numbers,” said U.S. Rep. Juan Ciscomani, R-Arizona, in a letter addressed Wednesday to U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. “We have now seen days with more than 10,000 migrants encountered. Today, there have been over 200 migrants released onto the streets of southeastern Arizona border communities in the Tucson Sector alone.”
