So it went from the lowest in 17 years in 2017 to a problem today and it's who's fault? Sorry GOP but you were in full control for a couple years. Please tell us what bills Nancy Pelosi passed in the House that made it through the Senate and past Trump that you want to now say it's her fault.
Actually, the Flores Decision and the rise of Sanctuary cities is what is the engine for increase illegals at the border. The Flores decision makes it impossible to just summarily deport Illegals, and with no wall they just walk right through.
The current procedures means that Illegals actually run TOWARD the border guards to turn themselves in, knowing they will be released quickly into America with a court date 4 years hence. The current rules promote people to bring their children with them across the border. They also encourage people with serious illness to make the trip, with the promise of Free Medical care in California.
In November of last year Donald Trump tweeted:
“CHAIN MIGRATION must end now! Some people come in, and they bring their whole family with them, who can be truly evil. NOT ACCEPTABLE!”
And now it turns out that Melania Trump’s parents, Viktor and Amalija Knavs, just became U.S. citizens through the process of “chain migration” that has been so heavily criticized by Trump. The Knavs were sworn in as U.S. citizens earlier Thursday, during a ceremony in New York. The couple is from Slovenia, where Melania Trump was born and raised.
The attorney for the first lady’s parents told The New York Times on Thursday that their daughter had sponsored them for a green card, and that they applied for citizenship once they were eligible using the family-based migration rules.
When asked if the couple became citizens through chain migration, Wildes replied, “I suppose. It’s a dirty — a dirtier word.”
The Knavs family weren't human traffickers, drug smugglers or MS13 people,sealy.
In fact, they were highly educated people , one and all.Mrs. Trump knows 5 languages.
Very intelligent, very qualified, the kind of immigrants we need in this country. I was particularly impressed with LGBTQ+-friendly photo shoot that Melania did. Shows the openness of the Trump family as well as the Knavs family to those of alternative lifestyles.
