Murphy, Blumenthal don’t stop border problem

-

In 2021 over 2 million people entered the United States illegally via our Southern border. Many were unvetted, unvaccinat­ed, uninsured, uneducated and unemployed. Their numbers will put downward pressure on wages and take jobs from our urban and rural poor. They’ll flood our hospital emergency rooms for free health care that the rest of us work hard to pay for. Open borders have flooded our towns with illegal drugs that have led to a surge in suicides and broken families. Why would our two Democrat senators, Chris Murphy and Richard Blumenthal, allow this to happen to the hard-working citizens of Connecticu­t they represent?
