Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) released a statement Thursday condemning the Biden administration’s decision to waive 26 federal laws, which will allow border wall construction to commence in Texas.
“The Biden administration was not required to expand construction of the border wall — and they certainly were not required to waive several environmental laws to expedite the building,” the congresswoman said in her statement. “The President needs to take responsibility for this decision and reverse the course.”
“A wall does nothing to deter people who are fleeing poverty and violence from coming to the United States,” Ocasio-Cortez said in her statement. “Walls only serve to push migrants into more remote areas, increasing their chances of death. It is a cruel policy.”
The New York congresswoman said the country needs to reevaluate the root of migration and how policy affects Latin America. She said the country has to “finally invest in meaningful immigration reform.”
Ocasio-Cortez has been an outspoken advocate for immigration reform, as New York City has seen a recent influx of migrants arriving in the city.

OH MY GAWD! MY EYES!!
hey
aoc has been working out
She’s all in on the national suicide.
25 miles of wall.... come on... lets finish the wall.
This is the opening to force a finish of all 200 miles and before the next election.
.
When she’s grumbled in the past, Pelosi and Hoyer have quickly set her straight, and she goes quiet.
STFU Sandy
Like Ron White says: “You can’t fix stupid”
They should move into her swanky condo. It can be like Doctor Zhivago.
The ease with which these people lie is pathological. This isn’t just political lying. It is entirely pathological. Now they are going to blame Republicans for the open border.
“Immigration reform” — wide open borders, no rules, no regs. The USA would hot 400 million in a few years with all the invaders having a second grade education, no skills, no trade. Probably 20% would be hard core criminals their home lands want to purge.
Would top…
Not Would hot.
Cortez can take in a family or two. Or ten.
“increasing their chances of death”
That increase in the chance of
death is brought on by the invader,
not the measures taken to avert
the invasion.
There’s no fight in these people
other than gangs and drug dealers.
Fine, then all the democrats who live in mansions with private armed security and walls needs to fire their security and take down the walls.
Right Nancy?
It’s going to be crazy if Brandon builds a wall and claims credit for securing the border. The media will broadcast it all over the world. The sheep have no clue....
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
It’s not the fault of the US that their home countries have poverty and violence.
