Amid a surge of migrants at the southern border, a handful of New York lawmakers have made trips to the U.S.-Mexico border to see the situation for themselves.
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, a Republican representing Staten Island, said she was saddened by what she found, describing it as “really out of control.”
She said the facilities were overcrowded.
“Children basically laying right next to each other, zero social distancing, crammed into pods,” she said.
Malliotakis, like many of her Republican colleagues, is criticizing the Biden administration for the current surge of migrants. She points to his decision to reverse certain Trump-era policies, including one forcing migrants to wait in Mexico while seeking asylum.

Confronting and overcoming the Covid crisis requires sure and steady leadership.

(J. Scott Applewhite/AP) As House lawmakers held a historic impeachment vote on Wednesday, they did so not with members of the general public in the viewing galleries above but instead with National Guard troops patrolling the nearby hallways of the Capitol building. The scene which came just one week after hundreds of rioters attacked the building in a bid to preserve Donald Trump’s hold on the presidency for many was a jarring militarization of the center of American democracy.
