And democrats won't participate for two reasons. One, it would give Trump a "win". Yes, that's how spiteful democrats are right now. Two, if they "solve" it, they will have not have anything to exploit. You know, some cultures won't kill a cow because killing it will give you meat for a day when they can have milk for years. Same mentality with democrats. They are sick

In 2018, House Republicans failed in their attempts to pass a bill addressing major immigration challenges. In 2019, House Democrats refuse even to try.
Behind every number is a name. The southwest border saw 14,855 family units apprehended in fiscal year 2013 but 84,542 this May alone. When each of those family units represents potential victims for smugglers and cartels to exploit, it’s baffling that House Judiciary Democrats — who have jurisdiction over immigration issues — have not offered one bill to stem what’s driving this border crisis.
Democrats are loath even to discuss the policy defects that endanger women and children by the tens of thousands. Since 2015, the Flores settlement decision has incentivized fraud and human smuggling by guaranteeing that any adult who arrives at the border with child in tow could avoid being detained. The ruling was a legal miscalculation former President Obama unsuccessfully appealed to have overturned.
As a result, in Guatemala, a 51-year-old man purchased an infant to bring with him across the border. The man paid $80 for the 6-month-old — roughly the cost of drinks and appetizers at your average D.C. restaurant.
