President Joe Biden says he'll visit the border next week during Mexico trip

Source: Texas Tribune

President Joe Biden intends to visit the U.S.-Mexico border during his trip to Mexico City next week, according to news reports.

“That’s my intention. We’re working out the details now,” Biden told reporters on Wednesday during a visit to Kentucky.

He didn’t say which part of the border he plans to visit or reveal the date. According to CNN, a final decision to add a border visit to his schedule during his trip to Mexico has not been made.

A border visit would be the first for Biden since he took office. The Wall Street Journal reported that there would be no new policies announced during Biden’s possible border visit.

Few things get them more agitated (except maybe mixed-race or same-sex ads).
