Immigration remains the biggest problem at the border, Sen. Ron Johnson says
Senate Homeland Security Chairman Ron Johnson said Sunday he is worried about a recent flu outbreak and deaths at the southern border due to overcrowding but maintained that the larger issue continues to be illegal immigration.
“We’re almost eight months into this fiscal year and we’re up about 400,000 in total. If it continues at this pace, in one year, we’ll have about 800,000 unaccompanied children, people who cross the border illegally as a family unit — 800,000. So this is overwhelming our system, and we have to stop it. We have to change our laws to stop rewarding and incentivizing people who cross our border illegally.
