Rep. Cindy Axne (D-Iowa), one of the more vulnerable Democratic incumbents heading into the 2022 midterm elections, told Iowa Public Radio in an interview last week that she agrees with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) remarks that the situation along the southern border is “on a good path,” even as the number of illegal immigrants has continued to surge.

Asked about Pelosi’s comments, Axne said she agrees with the speaker “because we now have a president in office that actually wants to tackle this issue that’s been before us for years.”
