BROWNSVILLE, Texas The U.S.-Mexico border is a place where hope clashes with reality.
Felicia Rangel-Samponaro sees that clash every day by the very nature of her job as one of the directors of The Sidewalk School for Asylum Seekers.
“We are actually a rapid-response organization, which means we feed people, we house people, we give clothing, blankets, tents, sleeping bags, self-care kits, mosquito netting, lights, kids, sunscreen, food. And after all that we are school,” she told KENS 5.

Cornyn, Sinema, Cuellar, Gonzales Introduce The Bipartisan Border Solutions Act to Address Migrant Influx at Border
WASHINGTON -U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) and U.S. Representatives Henry Cuellar (D-TX-28) and Tony Gonzales (R-TX-23) today introduced
The Bipartisan Border Solutions Act, their bipartisan, bicameral legislation to respond to the surge in migrants coming across our southern border. The bill would improve both the Department of Homeland Security s and the Department of Justice s capacity to manage migration influxes and adjudicate asylum claims in a timely manner, protect unaccompanied migrant children, reduce impact on local communities, ensure migrants are treated fairly and humanely, and ultimately deter those who do not have realistic asylum claims from placing themselves in danger by making the treacherous journey to our southern border.
Since U.S. President Joe Biden took office, federal immigration officials have noted a sharp decline in arrests and deportations of illegal immigrants. This is after the new administration rearranges migration enforcement in the U.S.
Biden has included a 100-day deportation moratorium on his key campaign promises, which means undoing previous policy in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
ICE s arrests have declined by about two-thirds in March as compared with the monthly tallies made toward the last hitch of the Trump administration, The Wallstreet Journal report.
Meanwhile, deportations fell by about 50 percent, with immigrants in detention falling to 14,000 in March, compared to 56,000 in 2019.
