Despite the dropping temperatures, the flow of migrants entering the United States illegally continues to surge at the southern border. This past week, border agents in El Paso, Texas, apprehended two convicted murderers who were attempting to enter the country. The bulk of illegal traffic is concentrated in the area near the international crossing bridges between Eagle Pass, Texas and Piedras Negras, Mexico. However, activity has also been increasing further north.
Fox cameras captured a video of approximately 100 migrants being taken into custody near an exclusive neighborhood with high-end homes, where the area butts up against the Rio Grande River. This has become yet another hotspot for illegal crossings. Democratic Congressman Don Davis of North Carolina recently visited Eagle Pass to witness the crisis firsthand. Confronted with the enormous volume of resources that the community is committing to managing the situation, Congressman Davis emphasized the urgency of addressing this unsustainable ongoing crisis.
