“They are sending pallets, pallets of baby formula to the border,” said Republican Rep. Kat Cammack of Florida in one of two postings of the photographs Wednesday on social media.
“Meanwhile, in our own district at home, we cannot find baby formula.”
She held up photos showing both Advantage brand formula and Gogo Squeez applesauce at the Ursula migrant processing facility in McAllen, Texas, where she said “thousands are being housed and processed and then released.”
Cammack said the agent told her, “Kat, you would not believe the shipment I just brought in.”
The lawmaker explained that the agent has worked for Border Patrol for 30 years, “and he has never seen anything quite like this.”
“He is a grandfather and he is saying that his own children can’t get baby formula,” Cammack said.
