Wrong. It's totally a partisan issue. The DemSoc partisans are winning total power via open borders.

Why would they want to stop something that is bringing them total power, using California as the template?

So long as there are two wings of the Uni-Party, EVERYTHING is a partisan issue.

They were not force marched to the US border. They came of their own accord. This is not US’s problem. The problem lays with those that come. They are the problem. This is not America’s fault

How many “Republican” NGO’s are in Central and South America organizing and funding these mass waves of uneducated people? NONE!

The hell it’s not partisan!

1979 Mariel Boatlift. 130k or so Cubans, many of them criminals and mental patients came over. Fidel flushed his toilet. Perhaps it was ‘only’ 130k. Now it seems the whole world wants in. What happened in 40 years? Carter dumped them in Ft. Smith, Ak which cost Gov. Clinton his reelection. So how do you allow these people in WITHOUT appearing to invite them in?

The problem isn't the quality of the detention facilities. The problem is that our existing detention facilities are overwhelmed by the volume of people coming in. The problem is that our existing Court system is overwhelmed by the volume of people coming in.

The solution is to reduce the volume of incoming traffic.

People come to the United States because the United States is soft on the hoards of asylum seekers. Moreover, many of these asylum seekers are not fleeing harm, they are flocking to money -- our money.

Moreover, our economy is usable to soak up the volume of new workers and their children. They come with nothing, with no skills, and no work ethic. Even with the latter, the USA doesn't have the jobs.

One solution has been to push first response to asylum claims to the first responders to infiltration: the Border Patrol. The problem there is that these non-citizens have the "right" to appeal decisions -- and what to do with them while the appeal wends its way through the Court system.

We are being overwhelmed.

Sorry no sale.
These people are economic migrants. They have no right to thrust themselves upon us and expect care. The writer is pretty typical in assigning responsibilities that she isn’t involved in carrying out. Whether she is identifying as a liberal or not her big government stance is appalling.

Congress made the mess & Congress needs to fix it. And we need a big beautiful wall with gates for legal immigrants.

Really I can’t even read the piece when the thesis statement is so blatantly false.

Agree that is part of the problem None should be allowed to cross illegally. They could be stopped or forced back into Mexico if the will existed. Yep the world is flushing their toilets on to the American Citizens

THIS Congress is not going to fix it.
They created it.

We will never Make America Great Again by re-electing the same Bush League Republicans that have tried repeatedly to give the Democrats a permanent majority with amnesty for illegal aliens.

We need to elect better Republicans that will side with the citizens and the rule of law.

President Trump is assembling leverage to get it done. That is the only path. You elect what you think is better and then they change like Mia Love did.
I donate to Build The Wall and to DJT, that is all I trust in at this point.

Women have been given their chance and as a group have failed convincingly.

It’s not news. It was learned millennia ago and many times since.

Why should these illegal invaders have any better facilities than I had when I was in Vietnam?

Immigration detention centers need to act fast to bring their standards up to par for the hundreds of children forced into their care.

NO!!!

Close the border and send everyone BACK to MEXICO. Let THEM handle the 'problem'!

After all; they ALL walked or rode through HUNDREDS of miles of it's territory.

Why didn't they seek 'asylum' there?
