March 12, 20214 yr Author Maybe the 5,000 NG troops can help at the border, since nothing is going on at the Capitol except pork barrel robbery.....
March 14, 20214 yr Author Pelosi: Climate Change Causing ‘Humanitarian Challenge’ at the Border PAM KEY 14 Mar 2021338 1:56 House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said Sunday on ABC’s "This Week” that climate change has contributed to the surge of migrant children crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. Pelosi said, "There are more children, about 600, 700 more children, unaccompanied children coming over the border. This is a humanitarian challenge to all of us. What the administration has inherited is a broken system at the border, and they are working to correct that in the children’s interest. I’m so pleased that the president, as a temporary measure, has sent FEMA to the border to help facilitate the children going from one 72-hour issue where they are cared for as they are transferred into family homes or homes that are safe for them to be. So this, again, is a transition for what was wrong before to what is right. Of course, we have to also look to Central America, Mexico, and the rest. The corruption, the violence, all of that.” She added, "My most recent trip to the northern triangle, that would be Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador. You saw the impact of climate change. These people were leaving because of the drought. They couldn’t farm, and they were seeking other ways to survive. There are many reasons to go into this, but the fact we have to deal with it at the border, and some of the people coming there are seeking asylum. I always like to quote our friends in the Evangelical movement. At one of our hearings, we had before the majority of the representatives said to us. The United States refugee resettlement program is the crowned jewel of American humanitarianism. So we have certain responsibilities that we must honor. We have to have a system that accommodates that, and that is what the Biden administration is in the process of doing.” Follow Pam Key on Twitter @pamkeyNEN

March 15, 20214 yr We want an compassionate response to children at the border. We need that same compassion and focus on the 110k homeless children in US. Be nice if government could chew gum and walk at the same time. https://www.childrensdefense.org/policy/resources/soac-2020-housing/

March 15, 20214 yr Well hopefully the relief package can some into homes or shelters. States have some leave way on how they spend their allocation. Hope they address homelessness too.

Giving a third of that to the Border Patrol would double their budget. I wonder if that might serve better?

March 16, 20214 yr For the complete morons who are into walls, go find a creek. Build a wall across it. What does the water do? FYI - the water has to follow the laws of physics - people don't. They will walk to the edge of the wall and go around. Walls are only effective when they enclose something and they are guarded and watched 100%
