REPORTER: You’ve condemned governors sending migrants to various cities across the country?

But where should officials who are overwhelmed by the number of migrants coming into their cities and shelters, where should they send the migrants?

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE, BIDEN ADMIN: We have said many times before, there is a process. A legal process. And that we are willing to work with cities who are dealing with this issue.

What we have seen from governors is that they are using migrants as a political tool. That’s not the way to do it. They are sending migrants, as we’ve seen the last several months, the last several weeks, they’re sending migrants without letting city officials know, without letting the federal government know.

And what they do is they call TV news stations to be there to capture this moment and use it as a political stunt. We will continue to call that out. But we are willing and open to working with cities that are dealing with that issue, as we have done with New York City, as we have done with Washington D.C., and other cities as well.
