WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Rick Scott released the below statement after White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki dismissed concerns about the crisis at the border as “political games.”

Senator Rick Scott said, “The Biden White House is so out of touch with reality that they think the crisis on our southern border, created by Biden’s failed open border and amnesty policies, is a political game. Here’s the reality: mayors, law enforcement and border patrol agents across the nation know this is a dire crisis that is hurting American families, pouring drugs over our border and incentivizing criminal activity that victimizes women and children.

“Biden is letting this crisis rage with no accountability. He’s all in for closed schools and open borders. While he hides, hoping no one will notice his refusal to visit the border or protect American families, I’ll never stop fighting to uphold the law and secure our border.”
