I applaud the Mexican government for their cooperation in addressing issues posed by mass Central American migration. Now it's imperative that Congress pass legislation to close asylum loopholes, secure our borders, and restore integrity to our immigration laws." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-06-27T23:11:43Z |
