The influx of migrants into cities is driving some of that sense of crisis, given the media attention it is getting and the obvious difficulty connecting them with jobs and housing. As even Tony seems to understand, that's a problem of distribution - migrants are being shipped to where they are a visible problem rather than to where migrant-ready jobs are. This is because the GOP is sabotaging real bipartisan problem-solving. Because they know such wrench-tossing makes Biden look bad. IOW, scoring political points is more important than helping vulnerable people in need. Same as it ever was.
