One migrant present, Abelardo Chacón, had spent the past month and a half in Ciudad Juárez . He said he crossed over into Texas in hopes of traveling to Miami but that they “threw me out.” He said he didn’t know what to think of McCarthy’s visit because “I honestly don’t know who he is.” Senate Republicans made a similar visit to the border in March, with Sens.

Garcia emphasized the need to reform immigration policy to allow more legal pathways for immigration and to streamline asylum case hearings so applicants don’t wait in legal limbo for years. Both are goals that a handful of border Republicans have said they would be willing to work across the aisle on. Gonzales, the San Antonio Republican, said Tuesday he has called on the Biden administration to find bipartisan border policy and invited Biden to visit the border.
