EL PASO, Texas — Hundreds of illegal immigrants are sleeping on the streets and on city buses in the cold weather and crime is rampant the night before President Joe Biden is set to visit El Paso, the Daily Caller News Foundation observed.

Biden’s visit Sunday will be his first trip to the U.S.-Mexico border, which has been overwhelmed by record surges of illegal immigration. Just hours before his arrival, there’s a dire situation for both the locals and illegal immigrants in El Paso. (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Agent Shot Near Border Days Ahead Of Biden’s Visit)

“This has never happened before. We’ve never had people, I want to say in the history of El Paso sleeping on the streets the way they’re sleeping on the streets now,” former city councilwoman Claudia Rodriguez told the DCNF.

Rodriguez continued, saying, “It’s something completely unprecedented and I think that if we want to be able to sustain this, legislation change needs to happen obviously because it’s unsustainable. We can’t have people sleeping in our streets forever and while that’s happening people feel more emboldened to come.”

U.S. Customs and Border Protection encountered over 2.3 million migrants at the southern border during the fiscal year 2022.

In El Paso, the streets surrounding Sacred Heart Church is lined with illegal immigrants.

The area is surrounded by church groups, nonprofit organizations, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which is passing out food and aid to the homeless illegal immigrants. City buses are out of service and overrun with illegal immigrants trying to stay warm.

Rodriguez stated that it’s a sight that Biden needs to see.

She added, “And I hope he sees it from the perspective of El Pasoans, not so much the migrants, because he was elected to represent El Pasoans. And he sees that this is very devastating on our community, this is very hard on our community and it’s something that we don’t want, it’s something that we did not ask for.”

This is the same spot we were yesterday outside of the church downtown in El Paso that is providing aid to migrants. With the president coming today, it appears they’ve added some trash cans. @DailyCaller
