White House admits immigration control issue, blames Republicans.
The White House Blames GOP for Illegal Immigration Problem
Illegal immigration has become a significant problem in cities like Chicago, Washington, D.C., and New York City. The White House admits that this is an issue, but they point fingers at the GOP for causing it.
Voluntary Busing Programs Amplify Immigration Challenges
Red state governors have organized voluntary busing programs that contribute to the immigration challenges in these cities. California, in particular, has become ground zero for a controversial prosecution debate surrounding retail theft.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) have been engaged in a heated debate on how to handle the influx of immigrants. Even Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has criticized the Biden administration, calling immigration their “weakest issue.”
“This is one area where our policy is dictated by politics, arguably moreso than any other,” a reporter quoted AOC during a White House press briefing. “What is your response?”
Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre agreed with AOC’s statement, blaming the GOP for politicizing the issue.
“On the first day of this administration, President Joe Biden introduced comprehensive immigration legislation,” Jean-Pierre explained. “While he’s taking steps on his own, Republicans have turned this into an incredibly political issue. They have resorted to political stunts.”
One of the major stunts includes busing programs initiated by Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) and former Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey. These programs allow immigrants to take taxpayer-funded trips from the southern border to major cities, putting a strain on blue destinations like New York.

Republicans argue that Biden should enforce existing laws to secure the border, but the White House disagrees.
“The president has proposed a bipartisan approach,” Jean-Pierre stated. “He has offered the necessary funding to address the border situation, but Republicans in Congress refuse to cooperate. They want to keep it a political issue.”
