Commentary
Last week, Joe Biden and Donald Trump visited two areas in Texas along the border with Mexico. Mr. Biden visited Brownsville with Customs & Border Protection (CBP) officials, while Mr. Trump accompanied Gov. Greg Abbott at Eagle Pass. Since Mr. Abbott has taken the initiative to better secure the Texas border, much of the unlawful migration has shifted to Arizona and California.
