‘Federal Crisis’: El Paso Wants Migrants Housed On Military Bases

  • The city of El Paso, Texas, has called on the Biden Administration to use military bases to house illegal immigrants because of the strain they are placing on local resources, Deputy City Manager Mario D’Agostino told the Daily Caller News Foundation Tuesday.
  • D’Agostino suggested that the military house the illegal immigrants on bases like Ft. Bliss as it previously did with Afghan refugees after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
  • “What we have been saying to all of our federal partners is that this Title 42 going away, with the numbers we’re seeing today is a true emergency for the community. It’s a federal crisis that’s happening in the border of El Paso. With that, they’re gonna need to do some federal operation, maybe like what we saw with the Afghans,” D’Agostino told the DCNF.
