ICYMI: Former White House Senior Advisor for Migration Slams Republican Stunts

WASHINGTON, DC – Yesterday, Tyler Moran, President Biden’s former senior advisor for migration, appeared on MSNBC’s “SYMONE” with host Symone Sanders to discuss the cruel stunts pulled by Governors DeSantis and Abbott that used immigrant lives as political pawns. 

“[Republicans] say they want to move towards solutions, but they are really just interested in political stunts when it comes to immigration,” Tyler Moran said. “You know what’s going on? Republicans don’t want to talk about abortion. They don’t want to talk about falling gas prices. They don’t want to talk about the package that just passed overwhelmingly on climate change. What do they want to talk about? Immigration. They’ve done this before; they did this in 2018 where they tried to manufacture a caravan and they had the biggest losses in the midterms in decades… What Greg Abbott and DeSantis are doing is creating chaos.”
