I wish you were correct, but I fear you are not...The long term but unstated policy for both parties is to eventually open the southern border completely, without the need for any travel restrictions either way. Ultimately, the actions of both parties lead to the inescapable conclusion that there will be nothing accomplished.
Note that there is declared a state of "emergency", yet the money will be used to train new employees of the government, which training will not even begin for quite some time. The truth is, they are taking extra federal money to bolster the hiring of local law enforcement, and making the Republicans look bad at the same time...it's a twofer!
If it was an emergency, the National Guard would be standing at the boprder, but its not!
Watch for the great footage on television of the installation of some extra cattle fencing along the border in return for the landowner's agreement not to let the minutemen on that privately owned land...
ach, so cynical....hopefully, too cynical.........
I can't believe the admin would paint themselves into a corner like this........
