A top official in El Paso, Texas, has called the situation at the southern border “frightening” and said the local community is not accustomed to having so many illegal aliens in the city.

El Paso City Council member Claudia Rodriguez made the comments in an interview with Fox News on Dec. 28, shortly after the Supreme Court voted to allow the Title 42 immigration policy to remain in place.
