In an interview with Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin in the border city, a migrant admitted that he had not sought asylum and had instead traveled to New York to look for work.

“I love you Joe Biden, thank you for everything Joe Biden. I'm a good person. I want to be a good person here in the United States,” the man, who did not share his name, told Melugin.

The same man seen, wearing an orange jacket and black hoodie, claimed to local reporters that he had been punched in the face by “African people” during the trip.

“The African people beat me and the police also beat me,” he claimed.

He added that they wanted to take him to jail and that he “hadn't eaten in 24 hours.”

'I haven't eaten anything for 24 hours, can you help me?' he begged the local reporter he was speaking to.

Further reports indicated that the young man had 'queued and caused a fight'.

Another migrant from Liberia told Melugin that he came to the border town to find “quality life,” adding that “America is a land of opportunity.”

According to Fox newsHundreds of men were seen camping outside the remote border port, while the Tucson Sector saw nearly 3,000 encounters in one day and 17,500 encounters in one week, the highest totals ever recorded.

The broadcaster has captured migrants exploiting holes in the border wall repaired by federal contractors.

Last week, Arizona Rep. Juan Ciscomani called for the deployment of the Arizona National Guard to the border and urged Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to recommend such measures to the Pentagon.

“Tucson Sector is a leader in encounters and our agents and officers are overwhelmed and understaffed,” Ciscomani said in a letter to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, obtained by the outlet.

“The situation is well past a breaking point and those on the frontlines of this crisis need immediate support.”

Resources for the Tucson sector have soared in the region that typically sees less traffic than its counterparts, such as the Rio Grande Valley.

There were more than 2.4 million encounters with migrants across the U.S. southern border in 2023, which is a new record.

The Biden administration has argued that Congress must take action and provide more funding for the border processes.

Since 2021, it has been calling on Republicans to support a comprehensive immigration bill that it unveiled on the first day of administration.

In nearly three years since Biden took office, Congress has failed to take action, a White House official said CNBC.

“Because of their failure, the government has focused on implementing a strategy of humane, safe and orderly enforcement, and has introduced policies to deal with individuals in a fair and expeditious manner, and continues to remove those without legal basis to stay in their country. the United States.'

The bill would include amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants — legislation that was vehemently rejected by Republicans.

Border Patrol has also blamed the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis for making the surge in Lukeville an “open invitation” from them.

“It's taking a toll on the men and women (of Border Patrol) who put their lives on the line every day,” Art Del Cueto of the National Border Patrol Council told Fox News.

Some Southern governors, such as Greg Abbott of Texas and Ron DeSantis of Florida, have turned to busing migrants to liberal-run cities as states become overwhelmed by the number of migrants.

That has led to an increase in shelters in northern cities and many Democratic leaders have lamented Biden's policies and asked federal officials for help covering the costs of housing migrants in their cities.

Abbott has said he will not stop sending migrant buses north and that Texas will “continue to use all available resources to secure the border as best we can.”

The governor visited New York last month and saw first-hand how the city has been overwhelmed by the more than 120,000 asylum seekers who have arrived over the past eighteen months. Abbott, a Republican, has claimed that President Joe Biden is not to blame.

“The main importer of migrants to New York is not Texas, it's Joe Biden,” he said at a breakfast event held by the Manhattan Institute, a conservative think tank. Abbott said he started the bus program in response to the plight of his state's small border towns, which lack the resources to handle border crossers.
