Nanette Barragán: We are actually at a low of border crossings lower than even when Biden left. So what has been done by this administration right now has been working and we got to continue to get Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform. And that is ultimately what we got to do to fix the broken immigration system, something Republicans are not interested in doing.
This congresswoman claims Biden left?
Dean: I want to first say about the president. How beautiful was his speech last night? His remarks to the nation? It was just magnificent. A round of applause for the selflessness. How lucky have we been to serve alongside him these 3.5 years and for the next six months, I can't wait for what the future brings.
Well, first of all these, this is some more misinformation and disinformation.The vice president was never in charge of the border. She was never in charge of immigration policy. On the contrary, its Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Marius is in charge of border policy.
He's in charge under homeland security and Republicans already tried to impeach him and failed.So what are they doing now? They're making it up and blaming her.
First of all, it's ridiculous. First of all, it's ridiculous as a member of the congressional black caucus and someone who's had the opportunity to serve as the diversity and inclusion chair, thanks to Congresswoman Maxine Waters who is sitting here when you don't have anything else to say and you search for things, you make up things to make it clearly.
She is not a DEI candidate.If you look at her credentials, if you look at her history of running for elections, if you look at how battle tested she is. And so I'd like to say, we're not going to be baited by that.
And so when the Biden Harris ticket was put together, they jointly worked with approved, moved with those individuals who were serving, think about it 100 and five days before the election, who in their right mind would try to vet start over with a new campaign with new financials and with the momentum that we've had from day one with her, I'd say this team is doing just fine
I could tell you, my colleague from Wisconsin told me that two weeks ago, they had a rally, there were 400 people this week, they had a rally, there were 3000 people.And I think that's what we're hearing over and over. You could see the number of volunteers that registered overnight when the vice president made her candidacy known.
And did you wanna, I, I just wanted to add to that Jan Tsos from Chicago and team Tsos has been organizing people who want to go to Michigan and to Wis and to Wisconsin to help knock on doors in the last two days. 400 people have signed up to get a on the bus and go to your state. It's so exciting.
Buses full of people from Chicago to Michigan?
