Eagle Pass, Texas in Crisis: Migrant Surge Sparks State of Emergency

Eagle Pass, Texas, has declared a state of emergency as approximately 4,000 migrants crossed the border in a day, joining the 7,500 who have arrived in the past week. The city lacks the funds and resources to open a shelter, and videos on social media show the overwhelming influx of migrants. The Biden Administration's lax policies continue to allow floods of aliens into the US, inundating southern cities. The emergency declaration grants the city the ability to request financial resources to provide additional services. The number of migrant crossings at the US southern border has been rapidly rising, with over 2 million people entering each year. Texas has been using razor wire to block illegal entries and has been busing migrants to sanctuary cities. New York City, which has received over 100,000 migrants, is struggling to cope and is facing significant financial burdens.
