Almonte said, border communities like El Paso and Brownsville "don't have the funding to deal with the situation" and are in desperate need of help from the Biden administration.
"This is going to have an impact on state and local law enforcement agencies on the border and throughout the United States," said Almonte. "These migrants, some of them, are going to be committing crimes and a lot of them are going to become victims of crime. So this is an issue where state and local authorities are handling a federal problem."
