Republican Miami Mayor Francis Suarez said Sunday that his city has yet to receive any federal funds to help manage the flood of migrants over the past year.
Center for Immigration Studies' Todd Bensman shares what he saw when he visited the border and discusses reports the Department of Homeland Security is working with Mexico to address the mass influx of migrants on "Fox & Friends."
"He has to focus on crime reduction, and instead you see images of police officers helping people in the classic Roosevelt Hotel find housing," he continued."These officers should be, and you want them to be, focused on reducing crime, and instead, have to deal with this migrant crisis that as you've said should be a federal issue."
to ensure that those who are coming here to this country in a lawful manner is actually moved throughout the entire country, it is not a burden on one city," Adams said."And the numbers need to be clear. We received over 70,000 migrant asylum seekers in our city, 42,000 are still in our care. If this is properly handled at the border level, this issue can be resolved while we finally get Congress, particularly the Republican Party, to deal with a comprehensive immigration policy.
"We haven't received any support as of yet from the federal government that we are aware of," Suarez said."We checked to see if we have gotten any help from FEMA – it turns out we have not."
