BRACKETTVILLE, Texas—Sheriffs in 17 states are calling on President Joe Biden to fire Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, urging the president to replace him with somebody who will reestablish control over the United States’ southern border.
The Western States Sheriffs’ Association (WSSA) said in a position paper obtained by The Epoch Times that “a great deal of progress was made” in enforcing the U.S.–Mexico border under the Trump administration but that sheriffs are now witnessing “a complete and total breakdown” of enforcement efforts.
The number of illegal immigrant apprehensions at the border under Biden has set multiple records already, including the top yearly total. Apprehensions dropped in October, but the number marked the highest ever for the month.
