马里兰州州长韦斯·摩尔告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻,在全国就联邦执法问题展开激烈辩论之际,移民问题是美国”长期回避的问题”。
虽然他公开谴责特朗普政府的移民政策是”残忍和鲁莽的政治议程”,但他告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻高级记者诺拉·奥唐奈,前总统乔·拜登”本不该有这样的权力”。
“我们本可以做得更多。我认为,没有人会否认,在拜登总统任内,移民问题并没有得到妥善解决,”他在一场市政厅会议上说,该会议于美国东部时间和太平洋时间周日晚上8点在哥伦比亚广播公司播出,紧随《60分钟》节目之后。
在拜登政府期间,美国边境巡逻队在南部边境抓获的移民人数创历史新高,官员们正努力应对人道主义、政治和运营危机。在拜登任期内的某些时候,该机构每天记录数千起抓捕事件,到2023年底的高峰日,总数攀升至约10,000人。
这就是为什么特朗普将移民问题作为其2024年总统竞选的核心内容,承诺全面改革美国移民政策并进行美国历史上最大规模的驱逐行动。哥伦比亚广播公司新闻在10月报道称,2025财年美国与墨西哥边境的非法越境人数降至50多年来的最低年度水平。
尽管移民问题在2024年选民的首要问题中名列前茅,但对特朗普政府驱逐行动的支持率已开始下降,最近的民调显示,更多美国人认为美国移民和海关执法局(ICE)的行动”过于严厉”。哥伦比亚广播公司新闻获得的美国国土安全部内部文件显示,在特朗普上任第一年,被ICE逮捕的人中有不到14%有暴力犯罪记录。
摩尔表示,他认为没有任何一届政府能够完全制定出有效的移民制度,而只有国会才能解决这个问题。
“这对我来说很令人沮丧,现在的国会就是这样,我觉得我们只是在眼睁睁看着责任被不断放弃,”他说。
由于共和党人控制着白宫和参众两院,摩尔暗示,如果特朗普推动的话,他可能会在”下周”就有一项全面的移民改革法案”摆在他的办公桌上”。”因为他们有足够的票数。但这并没有发生,”他说。

Gov. Wes Moore argues Biden “needed to do more” on immigration but blasts Trump’s crackdown
February 13, 2026 / 1:34 PM EST / CBS News
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore told CBS News immigration is an issue the country has “punted on for a very long time” amid the nation’s heated debate over federal enforcement.
While he has publicly condemned the Trump administration’s immigration policies as a “cruel and reckless political agenda,” he told CBS News senior correspondent Norah O’Donnell that former President Joe Biden “did not have this right.”
“We needed to do more. That, I don’t think anyone can argue that we had the system worked out under President Biden – that immigration was worked out,” he said during a town hall, airing Sunday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS, right after 60 Minutes.
During the Biden administration, the southern border saw record numbers of migrant apprehensions by Border Patrol, as officials grappled with a humanitarian, political and operational crisis. At points during Biden’s tenure, the agency recorded thousands of apprehensions per day, with totals climbing to around 10,000 on peak days in late 2023.
That’s why Mr. Trump made immigration a central part of his 2024 presidential campaign, pledging a sweeping overhaul of U.S. immigration policy and the largest deportation in the nation’s history. The tally of unlawful crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border in fiscal year 2025 dropped to the lowest annual level in more than five decades, CBS News reported in October.
While voters ranked immigration among their top issues in 2024, support for the Trump administration’s deportation efforts has started to decline and recent polls show more Americans view ICE’s operations as “too tough.” An internal Department of Homeland Security document obtained by CBS News shows less than 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump’s first year back in office had violent criminal records.
Moore said he would argue that no administration has ever fully figured out an effective system, and that only Congress can fix it.
“And this is the frustrating thing for me with this Congress right now, where I feel we are just watching a continued abdication of responsibility,” he said.
With Republicans controlling the White House and both chambers of Congress, Moore suggested that Trump could have a comprehensive immigration reform bill “on his desk next week” if he pushed for it. “Because they have the votes. And that’s not happening,” he said.
