Biden to deploy 1,500 active-duty soldiers to southern border

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

64% : Troy Miller, the top official at CBP, recently told Congress that his agency is preparing for as many as 10,000 migrants to cross the southern border every day after the end of Title 42, which would almost double the daily average in March.
52% : He is deploying 1500 troops to the southern border.
50% :Military personnel, DHS stressed, "have never, and will not, perform law enforcement activities or interact with migrants."
49% : This will free up law enforcement and Border Patrol agents who have been pulled from working on the ground at the border to do administrative work.
49% : There are already about 2,500 National Guard troops stationed on the border to assist Border Patrol.
46% : The troops are armed for self-defense but are not intended to assist with law enforcement.
45% : A federal law dating back to 1878 generally prohibits the military from conducting civilian law enforcement.
36% : The Border Patrol agents working along the southern border have been so overwhelmed by the thousands of illegal immigrants crossing into the country each week that some have been pulled from their normal jobs to go do desk work.
30% : Instead, Biden campaigned on eliminating deportations by ICE, and a come one come all attitude for those looking to cross the border.
18% : If only Joe Biden had not stubbornly insisted on doing away with the previous administration's policies and agreements to secure the southern border, the Biden border crisis would have been easier to control.
