McCarthy Expresses ‘Great Concern’ About Biden’s Border Crisis, Requests WH Meeting: Report

House Minority Leader 👤Kevin McCarthy has requested a meeting with President 👤Joe Biden to discuss the rapid influx of child migrants crossing the border.

In the last week of February, 321 children per day were referred to HHS custody, a sharp jump from the weekly average of 203 in late January and early February, according to documents reviewed by Axios.

The number of migrant kids crossing the border is on pace to exceed the record by 45 percent and the administration does not have enough beds to shelter them all, according to the New York Post.

“In the face of all of this, I feel compelled to express great concern with the manner in which your administration is approaching this crisis, but with hope that we can work together to solve it,” McCarthy wrote in his letter.

The California Republican pointed to comments made by Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas about people seeking to illegally enter the country.

“We are not saying don’t come,” Maryorkas said on Monday, according to Fox News
