AUSTIN - Joe Biden’s choice of El Paso, Texas, as the site of his first presidential visit to the US-Mexico border on Sunday, puts a spotlight on a city that has struggled to deal with a four-fold surge in the number of migrants on its streets.
Unlike the state, El Paso coordinated the trips with officials in the destination cities to make sure services were waiting for them upon arrival. “As we all know, our immigration system is broken,” Mr Leeser said in a statement. “I look forward to discussing our immigration challenges with the president and working with him as we work to address them in the most humane way possible.”
The city has a website where it recruits volunteers to aid the migrants, and stresses a humanitarian approach. It has spent almost US$10 million to bus migrants to other cities. That flow was disrupted earlier this year when Mr Abbott ordered state law enforcement officials to ramp up inspections of trucks coming from Mexico, a move he said was designed to deter smuggling. The move spurred massive shipping delays and backlash from Mexico’s government.
