that doesn't happen or that doesn't occur. but part of that false hope that's is sometimes presents. it as well. if you go this way, this is your mega get to united states. if you're pursuing economic opportunity, a lot of people that come, that's what they claim or when they're asylum claim is turned out. it's because they admit they're looking for jobs and economic opportunity for their families. but listen to this happy every employer, every we initially when i talked, is desperate for more workers. thanks to president biden, we have record low sustained levels of unemployment are hiring needs more workers to keep growing imagine if we brought it into legal pathway opportunities and linked people looking for work with employers, meeting workers that would be more mark and more effective, more thoughtful way to let me ask you this, senator, i want to play for you what your colleague in the house, alexandria ocasio-cortez said about the president's border policy, but also about the political situation that he's facing well, i think it
