.ZeeshanAleem: Biden is falling into an immigration optics trap set by Republicans. Here's how Dems can steer clear.
One of the most unfortunate dynamics emerging is the fight between Adams and the leaders of counties surrounding New York — he’s trying to bus migrants to their communities,. Playing a game of hot potato with asylum-seeking migrants is not becoming of an area that’s supposed to set an example for welcoming migrants. And the optics are a gift to Republicans who will say that Democrats are only vindicating their narrative that Latin American migrants are a burden on American society.
That bussing is expected to continue — and intensify as the rate of migrant arrivals increases. Immigration experts say that the federal government has a responsibility to make sure this situation is manageable. FEMA could provide more funding to NGOs that assist with housing and social services to migrants. That would help cities develop a more robust capacity to take in migrants as they arrive and adapt to new cities while they await their immigration court appearance.
Moreover, there’s a coordination issue here that only the federal government is poised to handle. Immigration experts point out that the federal government has never coordinated reception of asylum seekers, and that such an arrangement could alleviate a lot of logistical problems.
