A
Yuma
official warned that the city is on the brink of collapse due to the
Biden administration’s
immigration
policies.

Yuma County Supervisor
Jonathan Lines
warned that the massive influx of immigrants had overloaded the city’s system and that things would only get worse if the United States’s immigration policy wasn’t altered, he told Fox News. He also requested that President Joe Biden visit the city himself to see the dire situation they were in.

“Policies need to be changed when you see an unprecedented amount of people coming across the border that even supersedes what we saw under any of the other presidents for the past 30 years,” Lines told the outlet. “And they’re coming because they said that Biden told them to come, that we have an open border.”

“It will only get worse with Biden’s policies,” he added. “He needs to reassess.”
