A recent Gallup poll reveals 94% of American adults perceive the situation at the southern border as a crisis or problem. Despite some efforts to downplay the issue, the public remains acutely aware of the escalating conditions. Controversially, the Biden administration’s new ‘parole’ system grants legal entry to potential illegal migrants, blurring the lines between legal and illegal. The system’s predicted to admit over half a million asylum seekers annually, raising concerns for national security. Critics argue this approach masks the issue instead of addressing it, a sentiment shared by the majority of Americans surveyed. For the prosperity and security of the nation, many demand more transparency and rightful actions to tackle the border crisis.
