Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Sunday defended the Biden administration’s immigration policy. This followed the deaths of 53 migrants who were abandoned in the back of a tractor trailer.
He said U.S. immigration officials have repeatedly warned against traveling to the southern border.
“We have said repeatedly and we continue to warn people not to take the dangerous journey,” Mayorkas said in an interview with “Face the Nation.”
“We saw so tragically in San Antonio, Texas, one of the possible tragic results of that dangerous journey. And so many people don’t even make it that far in the hands of exploitative smugglers. And we continue to enforce immigration law, as is our legal responsibility.”
The secretary said migrants traveling through Central America to the U.S.-Mexico border often receive false information from smugglers that encourages them to attempt the journey, reports CBS.
