Tulsi Gabbard on the Border: ‘Yes, This Is a Crisis’

During a Thursday “Fox & Friends” discussion about the situation at the United States’ southern border, 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) admitted there was a “crisis” going on.

“It is a crisis, and I think there’s a few things that need to happen,” Gabbard stated.

She continued, “One is there’s still lack of resources being sent there to deal with the large numbers of people who are seeking asylum or trying to come across our borders. That extreme shortage of resources continues to be a problem. I think we’ve also got to recognize that, as you say, for people to come into our country legally, our legal immigration is vastly outdated and broken.”
Gabbard added that there are aspects of the “broken” immigration system that “end up hurting our economy and those that are contributing.”
