These are strong comments from a governor who has held office since 2014.
The Biden administration's words & actions caused this crisis
The perception among migrants is that US borders are open, asylum policies have changed & now is the time to head north
This administration must act now & deter individuals from making this dangerous journey 3/3 pic.twitter.com/AhOn7IQHj4
