In early May 2023, Breitbart Texas traveled to the city of El Paso, Texas, to view a crisis that saw hundreds of illegal aliens released daily by the Biden Administration camping on city streets in the historic downtown area. Between March and May of 2023, more than 100,000 illegal aliens were apprehended by the Border Patrol after entering the city from Mexico, and most were released onto the streets to pursue asylum claims.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, the thousands released by the Biden administration to pursue asylum claims erected makeshift structures on the downtown streets and alleyways around the Sacred Heart Church in El Paso. The city struggled to financially deal with the thousands of released aliens who often spent more than a week on the city streets attempting to find transportation to parts further inside the United States.
As the crisis unfolded, the Mayor of the City of El Paso issued a Declaration of Disaster and a State of Emergency in response to the humanitarian crisis caused by the influx of illegal aliens living on the city streets at the time.
Many sought shade as afternoon temperatures neared 100 degrees Fahrenheit on most days during the month. Breitbart Texas observed the aliens, unable to bathe for days, searching for relief from the heat on the city’s sidewalks and business entryways. Many panhandled at street corners and relied on the generosity of local business owners for food and supplies.
