President Joe Biden tore into unlawful immigration in a speech at the Summit of the Americas where he and other leaders vowed to crack down on human smuggling as they announced a new accord.
Biden laced his remarks with tough talk amid record immigration, addressing an issue that has caused his administration political problems from his first days in office.
‘We need to halt the dangerous and unlawful ways people are migrating,’ he said. Biden intoned in Los Angeles, where he is hosting the summit.
‘Unlawful migration is not acceptable,’ he said.
He also had a stark warning for human smugglers: ‘We are coming after you.’
‘If you prey on desperate and vulnerable migrants for profit, we are coming for you,’ the president intoned.
