Texas Democrats Issue a Stark Warning for Biden Over His Immigration Policies

Texas Democrats Issue a Stark Warning for Biden Over His Immigration Policies

Rolling back President Donald Trump’s tougher immigration policies was one of President Joe Biden’s main goals once his administration officially started. Talks of providing amnesty to millions of illegal aliens during the first 100 days in office and rescinding the “Remain in Mexico” policy – where those applying for asylum remain in Mexican until a judge determines their fate – prompted Central American caravans to start up once again.

But three Congressional Democrats in Texas are warning Biden about the backlash these decisions will have. They are concerned that the Democratic Party’s “messaging and policy proposals are too much, too soon,” POLITICO reported.

Reps. Henry Cuellar, Vincente Gonzalez, and Filemón Vela all represent districts along the United States-Mexico border. Their concerns are simple: they are concerned about America’s health care system being overrun because of the number of illegal aliens who decide to flock to the United States while the COVID pandemic rages on.

“The way we’re doing it right now is catastrophic and is a recipe for disaster in the middle of a pandemic,” Gonzalez told POLITICO.

So far the congressmen’s concerns are becoming reality. The number of illegal aliens flocking to the southern border continues to rise. As of now, the number of illegal aliens crossing the border is almost to the same level as it was before the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic began, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The last time local officials in border towns saw a large number of deportations in border towns was in 2019 when the Central American caravans flocked to the United States. Many of those claimed to be seeking asylum.

Cuellar warned about the dangers of rolling back Trump’s policies before the election in November. But his words fell on deaf ears.

“I said, ‘Hey, we don’t want the wall, but when it comes to the other issues, we gotta be careful that we don’t give the impression that we have open borders because otherwise the numbers are going to start going up. And surely enough, we’re starting to see numbers go up,” Cuellar said.

Their concerns go far beyond just the current pandemic. The three congressmen believe this policy decision could be detrimental for the Democratic Party as a whole.

“Our party should be concerned. If we go off the rails, it’s going to be bad for us. Biden is going to be dealing with a minority in Congress if he continues down some of these paths,” Gonzalez explained.

“A lot of the Democratic-leaning groups still have not figured out how to talk to Latinos in that the overwhelmingly progressive messaging is not that effective,” Gonzalez told POLITICO. “So, yes, immigration is important, but the focus for them is on jobs, the economy, the raise I got at work, the cost of health care and if I can take a loan out for my business.”
