Biden's COVID border crisis

Rapid Response

Joe Biden's border crisis is becoming a COVID crisis.

As Biden pushes mask mandates and government-enacted vaccine passports, his administration is literally releasing COVID-positive illegal immigrants into local communities. THEY HAVE ADMITTED IT.

 When looking at just McAllen, Texas, the Biden administration has released over 7,000 COVID-positive migrants since February. That includes 1,500 in the LAST WEEK ALONE. According to the city, 13% of the illegal immigrants released by the Biden administration are testing positive for COVID.

 As the federal government drops off “multiple bus loads” of illegal immigrants, local officials have been forced to construct emergency tent shelters for the “alarming number” of people, often as quickly as overnight. The city says the federal government isn’t even testing illegal immigrants for COVID.

 Biden’s failing policies prompted officials to declare a “state of disaster.” It’s a disaster being felt in communities throughout the country. Under Biden’s open borders agenda, COVID-positive illegal immigrants are being given bus and plane tickets to travel through the U.S. as local health systems are forced to cope.

A fundamental responsibility of the president is to secure the border, but Biden would rather abandon struggling communities and force masks on 3-year-olds in schools instead.
