Sen. Tom Cotton: Biden's border crisis is a national emergency. Dems' shocking amnesty ploy must be stopped

The consequences of Biden’s "see no evil" approach to chaos at the border have been predictable.

 Democrats aren’t doing anything to stop the crisis they created. Instead, they are throwing fuel on the fire by trying to force a massive amnesty through the Senate by a bare, partisan vote. Last month, Border Patrol agents caught more than 188,000 illegal aliens trying to sneak into our country, the highest number in more than two decades. More than one million illegal aliens have entered already this year, and those are just the ones we know about. Thousands more surely snuck into the country undetected, along with untold amounts of deadly drugs like heroin and fentanyl that are killing our fellow Americans in record numbers. If the Democrats wanted to stop this rising tide of illegal immigration and drugs, they would reverse course now and call this situation what it is: a national emergency. They would then build the border wall, reinstate the enhanced border protections put in place by the Trump administration, and deport lawbreakers.
