Per your post....' The number of immigrants arriving from outside Mexico and Central America has exploded in the last few months, increasing from about 10,000 to more than 62,000 per month, requiring farther flights and more resources.'

Um, not the past few months but the past two years. Why is that? What messages are migrants getting and from who to come here in record numbers, not only from South America but from around the world via our southern border?

'Texas Launches Elite Taskforce To Combat Biden's Record Gotaways

December 9, 2022 | Austin, Texas | Press Release

Governor Greg Abbott, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), and the Texas National Guard are continuing to work together to secure the border; stop the smuggling of drugs, weapons, and people into Texas; and prevent, detect, and interdict transnational criminal behavior between ports of entry.

Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, the multi-agency effort has led to over 333,000 migrant apprehensions and more than 22,000 criminal arrests, with more than 20,000 felony charges reported. In the fight against fentanyl, DPS has seized over 354 million lethal doses of fentanyl during this border mission.'

'Operation Lone Star continues to fill the dangerous gaps left by the Biden Administration's refusal to secure the border. Every individual who is apprehended or arrested and every ounce of drugs seized would have otherwise made their way into communities across Texas and the nation due to President Biden's open border policies.'

This is the roll the Biden administration should be doing, not Texas nor any other state.

As indicated, the Cato Institute is a notoriously libertarian think tank. Their numbers may jive(?) but end results tell a different story.

I'll take the word of what is really happening from the people in Texas and other Border States, not a libertarian think tank.
