If Congress passed the current border law...
Congress is fighting over issue with another border law after TX refused feds to intervene with their arresting of illegals and Brandon issued a 24hr complied or face the consequences edict....
The power, which Brandon is referring to as an authority to "shut down the border" on Friday, would be mandated after average daily migrant crossings hit 5,000 over seven days, or 8,500 in a single day which is part of the new border bill.
I know what TX could do with this new bill... line the border with busses and make a straight line of convoys to DC, NY, Chicago, CA, CO or any other sanctuary cities/states. Let these states know how it is to have 5000/day, six days a week of illegals entering into the state.
