the problem never “started” it was a continual thing. Migration policy has historically gotten stricter and stricter over the years. Reagan literally had the “touch sand get citizenship” policy back in the day.
Whether or not it’s being handled well is a different story, what we do know is that republicans lie about 99% of it. And that it’s not nearly as bad as it looks, as for the current immigration problem, it’s to do with asylum abuse, and lack of appropriate judge staffing (meaning year+ long wait times)
Both of these issues are incredibly easy to solve, but the republican house refused to solve either of these problems (under biden policy) and the current admin hasn’t done anything (except deny all asylum entry, which i suppose works) but they’re also deporting people without full due process or reasonable suspicion, which is illegal, oddly enough.
And besides, immigration only really got bad after the expiration of title42. (or at least that’s what the republicans say, but then immediately contradict it by saying it’s always been that way.) so who knows what’s actually the case.
