Rep. Goldman on Rep. Green Calling for Detaining Illegal Immigrants at the Border: There Is No Room to Detain Everyone Who Comes Over

EXCERPT:

GOLDMAN: “And second of all, there is no room to detain everyone who comes over. The DHS would need significantly more funding in order to be able to even do that. And Democrats, under President Biden, and over the last two Congresses, have requested from Republicans, bipartisan agreement, to add additional funding for the department, and the Republicans have rejected it. So, they are creating a scenario here that is impossible to meet, that does not accurately reflect the law, and is being done purely for Donald Trump’s political interests because Donald Trump has been open, and many Republicans have said this, that he wants to run on the border in this election, and therefore he does not want the Republicans to solve the problems at the border through bipartisan legislation. He wants them to submarine legislation to continue the chaos at the border so that he can run on that. It is political cynicism at its absolute worst, and we all must call out the Republicans for their desire to continue the chaos."
