Yost Orders Deep Dive Into Challenges of Surging Migrant Population

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost is taking action to address the challenges posed by the recent surge in illegal immigration

Yost was traveling to the southern border last week for a first-hand look at the challenges, before ordering the Ohio Department of Public Safety to take a deep dive into the implications of the surge.

The move comes as the Biden administration has been criticized for its handling of the border crisis

Yost has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration's immigration policies, arguing that they have led to a surge in illegal immigration and an increase in crime.

Yost's office will be working with law enforcement and other stakeholders to identify the challenges posed by the surge and develop solutions

The report is expected to be completed in the coming weeks, and Yost says he will use the findings to develop policy recommendations.

In the meantime, Yost is urging the Biden administration to take action to secure the border

He says the administration needs to increase border patrol agents, build a wall, and implement other measures to deter illegal immigration.

Yost's order is the latest in a series of actions he has taken to address the issue of illegal immigration

In 2021, he joined a lawsuit challenging the Biden administration's decision to end the "Remain in Mexico" program.

He has also called on the Biden administration to designate Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations.

Yost's actions have been met with mixed reactions

Some have praised him for taking a stand on the issue of illegal immigration, while others have criticized him for politicizing the issue.

Regardless of the criticism, Yost says he is committed to addressing the challenges posed by the surge in illegal immigration

He says the issue is a matter of national security and public safety, and he will continue to work to find solutions.
