NYT: Biden Ending Title 42 Means 18,000 Illegal Crossings Per Day at Border
JOEL B. POLLAK1 Apr 2022605
The New York Times reports that President Joe Biden’s decision to end Title 42 border protections could bring a surge of migrants amounting to 18,000 illegal crossings per day — a pace that works out to over 6.5 million migrants per year.
By comparison, there were close to 6,000 migrants per day encountered by Border Patrol in December 2021.
Title 42 is a pandemic-era protection that allows authorities to turn away migrants for reasons of slowing the spread of COVID-19, and it is one of the few border enforcement tools President Biden retained from the Donald Trump era.
The Biden administration will end Title 42 on May 23, according to reports earlier this week that were confirmed Friday.
