Biden border ‘bloodbath’ prompts Republicans to change immigration platform

GOP allies described the shift in messaging and tougher policies as meant to meet the moment as the country has seen more illegal immigration under President Joe Biden than even any two-term administration.

“It is definitely a reflection of what is happening at the border right now,” Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), the chairwoman for the RNC’s platform committee, said in an interview. “Under Joe Biden, you have had about 10 million illegal aliens come into the country, and people are living this.”
