Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin asserted that President Biden's border policies have effectively turned the United States into a 'sanctuary country.' Speaking on Fox News' 'Hannity' on Thursday, Youngkin stated that the current administration's approach to border security has created a situation where illegal immigration is incentivized.
'We've become a sanctuary country,' Youngkin told Sean Hannity. He argued that the policies have led to an overwhelming influx of migrants, placing significant strain on states like Virginia. The governor highlighted the need for stricter enforcement and a more comprehensive approach to border security.
The term 'sanctuary country' is often used to describe a nation where immigration laws are not strictly enforced, and undocumented immigrants are provided with certain protections. Critics of Biden's policies argue that they have weakened border control and encouraged illegal immigration, leading to increased crime and resource depletion. Supporters, however, contend that the policies are more humane and focus on addressing the root causes of migration. The debate over border security and immigration policy remains a contentious issue in American politics.
