(McAllen, TX) — Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds joined nine other Republican governors at the border in Texas where the group called on the Biden administration to take more action to stop illegal border crossings. Reynolds says the federal government needs to be more transparent with governors about where migrants are being relocated. She cited a springtime flight into the Des Moines airport where 15 migrants were brought in and taken elsewhere. She says it took a long time for the administration to confirm the passengers were asylum seekers. The Iowa Democratic Party is calling the trip a political stunt, saying her comments are hurtful to the state’s Latin community. Reynolds says the president isn’t protecting the border and that is his responsibility.
