No one in the government is advocating for completely open borders.
You also have a gross misunderstanding of what exacerbated issues with cartels. The greater vulnerability people have, the greater power predatory entities exert.
The best solution is a robust refugee admission program, a well funded and efficient asylum process, increased I-630 Visas and employment-based Visas, and a path toward citizenship for those within the country. I’m fine with a restitution-based path, but I don’t think it’s necessary.
Since they are not sending people back, the Biden administration has in effect instituted open borders. This is made all the worse by the Biden administration inviting any and all migrants, who might wish, simply to come. Furthermore, it is the policies of the Biden administration that are exposing an increasing number of people to the depredations of the human and drug smuggling cartels. All this is fed by the greed of the donor class, who wants more cheap labor, and the Dem politicians, who need new dependent voters to help them get elected and stay elected. These policies of the Biden administration have nothing to do with compassion. Indeed, they are the opposite of compassion. They reflect nothing but pure intractable hypocrisy and cynicism.
