NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - U.S. Senator Bill Hagerty, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, and Gov. Bill Lee demanded that the White House and U.S. Immigration and Customs reverse their plan to release an unspecified number of single adult migrants into Tennessee due to what they believe is continued inaction to secure the southern border.

“This is irresponsible and a threat to the safety of Tennesseans,” Lee said in a Tweet.
