El Paso, TX (June 25, 2021) Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, along with Vice President Kamala Harris, Senator Dick Durbin, and Representative Veronica Escobar, participate in a press conference in El Paso, TX.
Reporting on the building crisis in Cuba/Haiti, BRIGHT editors observe:
Cartels sending unaccompanied children across the U.S.-Mexico border for profit, fine. Cuban refugees escaping prosecution by boat, bad.
Given the Biden administration’s ongoing stance on immigration, what is it actually saying about what is going on in Cuba or Haiti, BRIGHT editors ask.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the United States will reject any Haitian or Cuban attempting to enter the country by boat, even if they have demonstrated a credible fear of being persecuted in their home countries.
From Alejandro Mayorkas:
(Mayorkas fled with his family from Cuba to Florida following the Cuban revolution):
“Allow me to be clear, if you take to the sea, you will not come to the United States, Again, I repeat, do not risk your life attempting to enter the United States illegally. You will not come to the United States.”
From Town Hall
“The warning comes as Cuban authorities are cracking down on demonstrators after massive protests erupted in the country over the weekend. At least 100 people are missing or have been arrested so far.”
