In a recent government meeting, discussions centered around the ongoing challenges posed by increased migration to states like Utah and Colorado. Governor Spencer Cox of Utah expressed concerns regarding the influx of migrants, particularly in light of a program in Denver that previously facilitated the transportation of migrants to Utah. Although he noted a recent reduction in the number of migrants arriving in Utah, he emphasized the need for a collaborative approach among states to address the issue.

Cox criticized the Biden administration for what he described as a failure to secure the U.S. border, which he believes has contributed to the migration surge affecting multiple states, including Texas, California, and Minnesota. He stated, \"Every state's a border state,\" highlighting the widespread nature of the problem.

When asked about the appropriate response from Colorado and Denver, Cox asserted that the posture should be one of not sending migrants to other cities, advocating for a unified approach among states. He also addressed the strain on local resources, particularly in school districts like Harriman, which are experiencing an increase in English language learning students due to the immigration surge.

Cox reiterated the need for federal support, stating, \"This is a federal problem,\" and called for resources to be allocated where they are most needed. He expressed a willingness to collaborate with the federal government to find solutions, emphasizing that immigration policy should not be left solely to the states.
