Rep. Barry Moore recently appeared on the Jeff Poor Radio Show on FMTalk 1065 to discuss the increase in migrants across Alabama, including his own community in Coffee County.

During the interview, Jeff Poor highlighted concerns about Haitian migrant resettlement, noting that "the hot spots right now are Sylacauga, Albertville, Athens, and it looks like Enterprise is about to become one of those."

Moore responded by stating: "I think the [Biden-Harris] Administration is giving [the migrants] work visas and shipping them into our cities. The problem with that is there are no resources for them. We knew this border crisis [would eventually be in our back yard]. I've been to the border three times, and I knew it wasn't going to stop in Arizona, Texas or California. These people would eventually find their way into our communities, and we see that taking effect."

For those interested in hearing more from Rep. Moore's discussion with Jeff Poor, the full interview is available online.
