WASHINGTON, DC: President Joe Biden is attributing the surge in irregular migration to congressional Republicans, accusing them of rejecting his plea for billions in new enforcement funding.
Biden, on Saturday, January 13, declared, "I've been pushing them - my Republican colleagues - since I got in office. I think we have to make a major change in the border," adding, "I'm prepared to make significant alterations in the border."
The President's remarks come in the wake of escalating illegal crossings at the southern border with Mexico, reaching record highs in December.
Facing harsh criticism from Republicans for his management of the situation, Biden deflected blame, asserting that Republicans in Congress failed to address immigration reform and denied his recent funding request of $3.5 billion for border enforcement and asylum processing.
