U.S. Congressman Mike Flood has criticized the Biden administration's handling of the border situation, specifically addressing the recent reopening of rail crossings on the U.S.-Mexico border. Congressman Flood expressed his dissatisfaction with the way Secretary Mayorkas has managed the border policy, stating, "Closing rail crossings only to reopen them days later under pressure is just the latest example of Secretary Mayorkas’ mismanagement of border policy."

While Congressman Flood acknowledged the reopening of the crossings, he emphasized that they should never have been shut down in the first place. He argued that the decision to close the crossings added chaos and unnecessary complexity during an already busy holiday season. Congressman Flood urged President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas to redirect their focus towards gaining control of the border and constructing the wall, rather than shutting down critical transportation that plays a vital role in the economy.

This is not the first time Congressman Flood has voiced his concerns regarding the border situation. In fact, he had previously joined two letters addressed to Secretary Mayorkas, urging him to permit trains to move across the border. These letters can be accessed here and here.

Congressman Flood's statement highlights the ongoing debate and criticism surrounding the Biden administration's approach to border management. The reopening of rail crossings has raised questions about the effectiveness and consistency of the administration's policies. As the border crisis continues to be a significant issue, political figures like Congressman Flood are demanding more substantial efforts to secure the border and address the concerns of the American people.
