MAYORKAS: "Allow me to finish my answer. On the first day in office, President Biden sent a legislative proposal to Congress to fix what everyone agrees is a broken immigration system. I have dealt with the immigration system, first as a prosecutor in the 1990s, and then as an administrator, beginning in 2009. And the years long process that you described, has been a problem in the immigration system, ever since I've worked in it. And everyone agrees that the system is broken. And what we are doing is enforcing our laws.”
