The white house and congress are hardly borderly on a solution. This is a problem of the president's own making. House speaker John Bonher said, democrats wont get $ 3. 7 billion in emergency funding for the border crisis unless republicans can tweak a loop hole in the law that offers young unaccompanied minors and entailment have special legal status. We've got a president that's AWOL and the president outta get engaged in this if he actually wants something to happen. A new CNN ORC poll finds the public clambering for change. With 74 percent saying it's extremely or very important for the US to deal with illegal immigration. A ten point jump over last year. We must pass the President's request, a, a supplemental bill, Central American leaders are in Washington asking for help. An untold number of their children are being abused on their long journey North, as the President of Honduras told CNN's Christiane Amanpour [ FOREIGN ] Young girls, 13- year old, the coyotes are human smugglers, give them birth control pills, because most of them are going to sexually abused. Texas government Rick Perry is calling for the national guard to be deployed on the border. I will not stand idly by while our citizens are under assault, and little children from Central America are detained in squalor. We are too good a country for that to occur. The Whitehouse first dubbed Perry's request symbolic, noting apprehensions of unaccompanied minors are down by half since last month. It seems to me that a much more powerful symbol would be the bipartisan passage of legislation that would actually make a historic investment in border security and send a additional 20, 000 personnel to the border. Now it turns out the Obama Administration has its own team on the ground on the border assessing whether a national guard deployment might be a good idea after all. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"The Immigration Crisis","description":"White House and Congress struggle to address border crisis","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/ba7H8axK/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2014-07-26T15:04:07.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/ba7H8axK.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/ba7H8axK/","duration":"PT2M6S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/ba7H8axK/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
