The U.S. is on pace to encounter more people showing up at the border than it has at anytime in 20 years. It is an emergency. It is a humanitarian crisis. -- And we should welcome the challenge.
Rather than telling the immigrants not to come, rather than telling them, Wait. Trump left us with a broken system and we are not yet ready for you, Tell them to come. Tell them you will do everything in your power to accommodate them.
If you need to get licensing in place to take care of children, get it. If you can't, get Congress to approve emergency powers allowing you to place the children in good, clean, comfortable care -- even if 40,000 of them descend upon you all at once. If you need to get special allotments of the Covid vaccine approved for them, go to Congress and get that approval. You have the power.
Welcome this challenge to help them; Don't run from it.
