ICYMI: Burgess to Mornings with Maria: Border crisis will end when it's made a priority

Washington, D.C. –Congressman Michael C. Burgess, M.D. (R-TX), joined Mornings with Maria to discuss the Biden Administration's response to the crisis at our southern border.



Highlights:

On the crisis at our border: "Look, it is going to end when it is made a priority, and the security side has to be the priority."

On the tragic death of a Border Patrol officer: "The President is saying he had 'more important things to do' than go to the border. This morning a young wife is waking up without her husband, and children are waking up without their father. This is the type of human tragedy that the President, unfortunately, is deciding to endorse. We have to get security on our southern border. "

On the end of Title 42: "It's going to look like absolute chaos, and nothing -- nothing, underscore nothing -- is being done to prepare communities in Texas and in other border states for what is going to be happening."
