It’s no secret that there is a massive crisis at the border, with illegal crossings up nearly 500% since last year. 26 Republican governors are taking action and are urging the Biden Administration to meet with them to come up with solutions to fix this out of control crisis.

While Governor Steve Sisolak was quick to activate the National Guard amid protests in the state, he has yet to indicate interest in sending troops to help the overwhelmed border patrol agents amid the crisis at the southern border.

“Governor Sisolak has resources available to him that would go a long way in helping our overwhelmed border patrol agents as the crisis at our southern border rages on,” said RGA Spokesperson Maddie Anderson. “Sisolak’s refusal to step in and help border patrol and law enforcement is inexcusable. He must put politics aside and stop turning a blind eye to the massive humanitarian and security crisis at our border.”
