#shorts On 1/6/2023, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “And just to follow up on something that Mr. Kirby said, he said that the people from these four countries are escaping intolerable circumstances. I looked at the most recent month of data for people who crossed the border and how they’re handled. And it seems that under this new program — and please correct me if the data is outdated — it seems like you might have a better chance crossing the border and being allowed to stay than applying for this program because there are only 30,000 slots per month.”
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Look, I will go back to what I have said and what the President has said, I think, very passionately yesterday and very precisely, which is that, you know, we are doing everything that we can to secure the border and to deal with irregular migration. That is a priority for this administration since day one. We understand this is one step. We understand to actually fix what — what is happening, this broken immigration system that we have seen for decades now, is to actually get legislation done. And so, look, you know, what I have said and what many of us have said, like, we are ready to work. We are ready to put forth plans as we have. And, you know, again, Republicans in Congress and Republicans official — across — across the country who have done political stunts are not. And if they truly want to deal with this issue, they would come to the table and they would work with us on immigration reform to — true comprehensive immigration reform.
