This is one of several reasons why the "southern surge doesn't bother me as much as it might.
Another reason: as long as DC politicians don't seem particularly concerned, why should I?
Then, this past week, despite a "clean bill," the border security bill was voted down in the US House. Apparently that bill took a lot of time to write and had strong bipartisan upport, but apparently not enough support to overcome partisan politics. I assume no politico hhad read the entire bill. Tells me all I need to know about this issue.
As long as immigration pretty much matches birth rate, I think the country will manage.

Later, February 26, 2024: I can't recall if I've mentioned this before or not -- the southern surge will be a huge economic win for Texas. The Feds are pouring money into the state even as they suggest they don't want to stop illegal immigration. This is a huge story.
