The border crisis is causing frustration among lawmakers in North Carolina, including Senator Thom Tillis. Tillis took to Platform X to express his concern, stating, "Biden's open borders have sent a clear message to cartels that our border is open for business. This must be stopped to prevent fentanyl from flowing into our communities. We must secure our border." Tillis is not alone in his frustration; other representatives in the North Carolina government are also fed up with the border crisis.

According to The News and Observer, Tillis has received support from two of North Carolina's House Democrats, Don Davis and Wiley Nickel. They are focused on a previous bill that prevented immigrants from entering the U.S. if they showed dangerous health issues and symptoms. However, when Biden took office, he changed the rules of the bill, allowing immigrants to enter despite potential health risks. During Trump's term, he pushed to turn away immigrants at the border.

Representative Patrick McHenry also addressed the border crisis in a letter on his website. He highlighted the connection between the border crisis and COVID-19, questioning Governor Roy Cooper about the number of immigrants entering North Carolina, whether they are being tested, if there is sufficient funding, and what the vaccine plan is for these individuals. Although the letter was written two years ago, the issue has only intensified since then.

Tillis has been vocal about his concerns regarding the border crisis. On his official page, he emphasizes issues such as sex trafficking and drug abuse, which have a significant impact on the American citizens. Tillis has been working to address the flaws in the system and believes that both parties should be involved in finding a solution. He was a strong supporter of Trump's border plan during his administration. Tillis expresses frustration with some liberal politicians in North Carolina who refuse to help address the crisis.

The border crisis is not only a matter of immigration but also poses significant risks to the safety and well-being of American communities. Lawmakers in North Carolina, like Senator Thom Tillis, are demanding action to secure the border and prevent the flow of dangerous drugs like fentanyl into their state.
