President Biden on Friday made an extended case for passing a bipartisan border security deal brokered in the Senate as he hosted roughly 30 governors at the White House.
Immigration was a key component of the reception for governors, with fact sheets laying out details of the Senate deal placed on tables where the governors were seated. After opening with comments on the war in Ukraine, Biden pivoted to the topic of border security.
“Folks, Congress has had a long, proud bipartisan history on immigration reform and abiding by our international treaty obligations, which we’ve signed, related to immigration. These reforms made America a nation of laws, a nation of immigrants, and the strongest economy in the world,” he said.

Sorry, Joe, 5k illegal entrants per day is not acceptable. Taking away any future correction of the problem by handcuffing the next administration is not acceptable. And that’s just a start.

Don’t need a “new” bill.
Typical deflection.
Unless it has changed drastically since yesterday, the Senate bill is a fraud. Only facilitates more illegal immigration. The House must kill it, burn it, soak the ashes in battery acid, and bury the result in a nuclear waste dump.
That said, trying to hold aid to Ukraine for ransom is unconscionable. Look for something at home to hold O’Biden’s feet to the fire. How about wind/solar/EV subsidies? Or the Department of “Education” budget. Maybe defund the FBI.
“OUR POLITICS”???????
MAYORKAS & OBAMA POLITICS—BIDEN JUST A MOVABLE MOUTH.
They are showing a tiny bit of spine. Finally
SloJoe needs to show some spine and tell Obozo no.
