Past presidents spoke freely of the need to secure our southern border. Obama called the border situation a "crisis." Clinton called the border crossings "disturbing." Reagan said the illegal immigration problem is "a serious national problem detrimental to the interests of the United States." Bush described the growing illegal crossings problem an "urgent requirement of our national security."
Is there a crisis? Of course. Our border patrol agents cannot keep track of the tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors which have already crossed into the US and others are still coming by the tens of thousands. These children are at serious risk and our border stations are overwhelmed and unable to properly care for them. Obama called that a CRISIS needing attention with billions in government funding and it is still a crisis today.
