Cubans and Haitans should not try using boats to migrate to the United States, a top Biden administration official said Tuesday.
"The time is never right to attempt migration by sea. To those who risk their lives doing so, this risk is not worth taking. Allow me to be clear: if you take to the sea, you will not come to the United States," Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, a Cuban native, told a press conference in Washington.
"Again, I repeat: do not risk your life attempting to enter the United States illegally. You will not come to the United States," he added.
Mayorkas briefly touched on his personal history-his family fled from the communist Cuban regime in the 1960s-but urged Cubans now not to make the same move.
No surge in attempted migration either by land or sea of Cubans or Haitians has been seen, officials said.
The United States designated Haiti for Temporary Protected Status in May for 18 months but that does not apply to Haitians who weren't in the country at that time.
Harris suggested Cubans would be able to stay in the United States.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
