There are too many illegal people that are not being vetted not being checked for diseases just let loose in our country on the premise that they show up for their hearing. There is a legal way to do this, and it's not fair to those who have done it the right way.

It is not really a political question. It is a question of security. We have none. We are wide open for a terrorist attack. The last major one resulted in 20 years of war.

It's both Political, and a security breach. The illegal immigrants that crossed the border in December alone, is only 5,000 less people that live in Boone, Callaway, and Cole counties combined. Biden has launched a war, against the United States of America. Our National Debt just exceeded 34 billion

It should be a major issue with anyone who locks their doors when they sleep. Anyone with common sense would know that, that's why Biden does not know that.

It is definitely an issue. It's too bad Republicans want to KEEP it an issue to campaign on rather than negotiate with Democrats to fix the problem.

As a teacher, I have literally received dozens of Venezuelan students into my classroom. They are great! The work is hard, but that’s what we all need to do. We need to view people as assets not deficits.

Not an issue. Nature has no borders. When was the last time a goose was shot because it had crossed the border illegally?

Whatever it takes. I'll support federal law enforcement efforts to clean up CoMo's crime problem as well.

Absolutely no reason for Military or ICE in MO or any state. Local law enforcement is present if needed.. Militant force against citizens in this country is unconstitutional. Another step to control citizens,further project 2025 and intimidate us and thwart 2025 and 2026 elections.

Inappropriate use of our talented national guard personnel. Local trouble is what we have local police for. Zaos, what if this was the zeitgeist when your ancestors arrived in this great land?

They are incompetent and don't need to stir the pot. They and ICE need to leave us alone. I'm tired of chaos and tired of us blaming the immigrants, when in reality, it's our fault for the slow process.

We should not be using military personnel on US soil unless ABSOLUTELY necessary (uncontrollable rioting, etc) This is about politics, not safety.

Do we really need the national guard to protect federal agents? This is a blatant abuse of American resources to support a xenophobic crackdown of our communities.
