'We have to be very careful,' Pres. Trump says of allowing Dorian evacuees from Bahamas into U.S.
The acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection denied on Monday that people fleeing the devastation in the Bahamas in the aftermath of Hurricane Dorian have been turned away from the United States by his agency because they did not have proper documentation.
"I don't want to allow people that weren't supposed to be in the Bahamas to come into the United States, including some very bad people and some very bad gang members, and some very, very bad drug dealers. So, we're going to be very strong on that." "At the last minute like this, it’s kind of disappointing," Renard Oliver, one of the evacuees who disembarked with his baby daughter, told WSVN."It’s hurtful because I’m watching my daughter cry, but it is what it is.""We're not ... telling the cruise line that you cannot allow anyone without documents. That's just not being done," Morgan said.
"I think that would be appropriate to have that circumstance," Morgan said."History shows we've done that before. So if history shows that it's taken a long time to get the Bahamas back to where the people can return, I'm sure that will be a discussion that we'll be having."
