'Mayor Bowser should direct her frustration to her friends in the Biden administration for their complete and utter refusal to secure our border and enforce our immigration laws,' KenPaxtonTX told dcexaminer
After Mayor Muriel Bowser claimed on Sunday that officials in Texas were"tricking" asylum-seekers into getting on buses bound for the nation's capital, Paxton was asked to respond. He said the blame should be placed on the Biden administration."Mayor Bowser should direct her frustration to her friends in the Biden administration for their complete and utter refusal to secure our border and enforce our immigration laws," Paxton told the Washington Examiner.
"The values, laws, and policies of Washington, DC did not change on Election Day. We celebrate our diversity and respect all DC residents no matter their immigration status. We are a sanctuary city because we know that our neighborhoods are safer and stronger when no one is afraid to call on our government for help, and when our police can focus on protecting and serving," Bowser said in a statement.
“This is a very significant issue. We have called on the federal government to work across state lines to prevent people from really being tricked into getting on buses. We think they’re largely asylum-seekers or going to final destinations that are not Washington, D.C.,” Bowser told CBS News. “But I fear that they’re being tricked into nationwide bus trips when their final destinations are places all over the United States.
