Right now, the Southern border is essentially a free-for-all. As drugs, human traffickers, and others overload the border, America's president and vice president are not acting accordingly.

Back in March, President Biden passed the baton to Vice President Harris regarding the Southern border. For close to 90 days now, the vice president has consistently chosen not to visit the border. Harris claimed to be focused on the "root causes" of the migration influx; however, she will not travel to the border and speak with officials dealing with the situation on a daily basis.

Texas and Arizona, two key border states, have become overwhelmed. This month, both states sent out pleas for help. Nebraska just recently announced its decision to have state troopers go down to the Southern border by the close of this month.

Grassroots work to fix the border crisis

In a statement, Governor Pete Ricketts of Nebraska made clear that his state values the safety of Americans and U.S. communities. In recent remarks, the Republican governor declared that despite the negligent inaction from Biden-Harris, Nebraska will aid Texas and Arizona in their fight to end the border crisis.

Ricketts' administration confirmed that state troopers heading to the border will work closely with Texas' public safety department for a little over two weeks.

Last week, Florida took similar action. Like Governor Ricketts, Governor Ron DeSantis stated that the decisions of the Biden administration created the present catastrophe at the border. DeSantis also announced that Florida shall send down law enforcement officials to assist Arizona and Texas.

Radio silence from left-wing states

Nebraska, Florida, Arizona, and Texas each have Republican governors. The latter two states sent out help requests to all 50 states; however, not a single Democrat governor stepped up to the plate.

Rather than focusing on solutions for the Southern border, Democrat leaders have directed their attention to different matters. Some of these matters entail advocating for children to learn critical race theory in schools and working to eliminate the Senate filibuster.

The plight at the Southern border is not going away. However, it appears as though Republicans should not expect Democrats' support in fixing the border crisis anytime soon.
