Florida AG Refutes Mayorkas Testimony That Admin’s Policies Don’t Encourage Migrants to Cross Border

Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody showed Fox News Digital an internal document that contradicts DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’s testimony to Congress.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) asked Mayorkas if he thinks “your actions and your policies are encouraging migrants to come to the border?”

Mayorkas answered, “I do not.”

Moody’s document says contradicts Mayorkas:

The DHS document, which Moody exclusively shared with Fox News Digital, listed “Perceptions of favorable U.S. immigration policies” as one of the reasons migrants have given for surging to the border.Other reasons included pursuit of economic and educational opportunities. The document appears to be from early 2021.

Fox News did not link or provide a copy of the document. I could not find it on Moody’s website.

Moody went off on Mayorkas: “It has been two months since I called on Secretary Mayorkas to resign in light of his flagrant neglect of the crisis at the border and his indifference to the safety of Americans. Secretary Mayorkas’s misrepresentations to Congress, however, are beyond the pale. Congressional leadership across the political spectrum should be appalled and take swift action. Florida will continue leading the fight against President Biden’s reckless immigration policies.”

Maybe Mayorkas should read all the blog posts under our “border crisis” tag.

Mayorkas even said, “Yet, we have effectively managed an unprecedented number of non-citizens seeking to enter the United States.” He should read the first post under the tag: Report: Illegal Immigration Grew by One Million in Biden’s First Year, Costing Taxpayers $9.4 Billion
