The border crisis can be solved by letting 10 million migrants take American jobs, says President Joe Biden’s pro-migrant border chief.
Alejandro Mayorkas was asked on April 21 if there was room for a compromise on border security before a deal on migration policy. Mayorkas, a lawyer, responded with an answer that mimicked the style used in law books:
I am an unrelenting optimist, but I will share with you the following:
What was articulated this week [by congressional legislators at hearings] is that … “We have 10 to 11 million vacant jobs, we have an incredible supply of [migrant] labor, and … we will not fix something like that until you secure the border.”
And my view of that is, it is a remarkable formula that [Congress] is holding the solution hostage until [Congress] fixes the problem. (Emphasis added)
Converted into English, Mayorkas is arguing Congress can solve the border crisis and the claimed shortage of workers by allowing the migrants across the border to take the jobs.
Mayorkas did not address the economic impact of letting millions of desperate migrants into the U.S. job market.

We can solve political problems by opening up those politicians.
Never mind that the 10 million jobs require skills and experience won’t/don’t have and no capability or desire to acquire said skills.
SPJNK.
So he’s never heard about AI taking millions of jobs? Of course, they’ll be minimally skilled jobs, which is exactly the kind of jobs these invading hordes will be getting. So we’ll have even more unemployed ppl in America in 5 yrs.
Why would anyone want to ‘compromise” on protecting our nation’s borders?
He is doing exactly what’s he’s being told to do........hold the southern border open at all costs.
A little tongue lashing from Republicans from time to time is a small price to pay to get the communist agenda moved forward.......he will be and probably already is being rewarded handsomely for his efforts.
Let’s be fair: I would be perfectly willing to open the boarder like it was prior to 1900 on the condition that all Federal Programs that began after 1900 (including Welfare, Education, Labor Protection, and Social Security) were eliminated.
Then, only those truly willing to work would come or even stay here.
We can get rid of crime by getting rid of laws and letting all of the criminals out of jails and prisons!
That’s the ticket!
We have enough workers now.
Good people have to stop merely thinking Dems are stupid or strange and understand they are strategically, systematically changing the country to whatever perverse vision they have.
Fair is close the borders and let wages rise. We are close to a lower middle class collapse in wages.
We can solve the border crisis by getting rid of every single member of the Biden regime, finishing the wall, and rooting out every single illegal we can who has already invaded our country. And revoke the citizenship of any so-called lawmaker who advocates letting the illegals in.
Opening the border to solve the open border crisis is like stopping all domestic oil/natural gas/ electricity generation to solve our energy crisis……
We live in upside down world.
These policies that steal American jobs on both ends of the salary spectrum are being perpetuated for two primary reasons IMHO: 1 - Dems are banking on illegal aliens becoming Dem Voters. 2 - Dems and Republicans cater to their big money donors who enjoy (get rich from) the fruit of cheap labor and H1B labor.
This is not Babylon Bee??
I would agree that we have enough people now. The problem is that too many are not willing to work. If we got rid of all the Federal Programs, those people might be a little more willing. Then, there wouldn’t be so much opportunity for others to come here.
Even the upper middle-class kids have learned that if they gain a few hundred thousand followers on Tik-Tok, then corporations would use all the government funding to throw at those kids.
This government funding is not sustainable.
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Patriots can solve the border crisis by electing all new state and federal lawmakers and executives who get rid of all constitutionally undefined regulatory agencies run by non-popularly elected government bureaucrats.
The definition of insanity is reelecting your state's beloved, Constitution-ignoring career state and federal lawmakers and executives over and over again, expecting different results every time.
In fact, patriots who regularly read Free Republic can probably pick better new lawmakers than Trump can.
Keep your guns by giving up your beloved career lawmakers since they haven't made a difference with bad government policy.
I agree but refuse to tie anything to or on a closed border and a GREATLY restricted legal immigation quota. These are good ideas that stand on their own merit.
