"Sen. Chris Murphy: Republicans Pushing for Border Chaos, Democrats Must Take Offensive Stance"

Sen. Chris Murphy accuses Republicans of intentionally blocking a bipartisan immigration bill to fuel the border crisis for political gain, stating that they want chaos at the border to aid Trump's campaign. Murphy urges Democrats to take an offensive stance on immigration and highlights that Biden's ability to address the issue is limited without legislation from Congress. He emphasizes that the bipartisan bill, which Republicans blocked, would have provided $20 billion in resources to control the border. Murphy also points out that undocumented crossings doubled in 2023, driven by various factors, and criticizes Republicans for opposing tough border reform.
