‘Avalanche’ of Illegals Ready to Flood US Border as Title 42 Ends
PJ MediaNov 19, 2022
On Monday, 15 Republican-led states asked US District Judge Emmet Sullivan to allow them to intervene in a case and defend the Trump-era Title 42 immigration policy, which Sullivan struck down earlier this month. After his ruling, the Biden admin. asked for five weeks to prepare for the change in policy.
In the court filing, the states argued that border states like Texas and Arizona would face "increased migrant flows," and wherever the migrants end up relocating to, "they will impose financial burdens on the states involuntarily hosting them."
The upcoming end of Title 42 has illegal immigrants lining up at the border to create an avalanche of border crossings. This will feature many violent criminals getting into the US. Seeing as though the Biden admin. doesn’t have a contingency plan for stopping this invasion, everything must be done to reverse Sullivan’s reckless decision and protect the border.
Since the US has dispensed with most COVID protocols, there’s no public health excuse to continue Title 42, which was always a xenophobic policy disguised as a COVID measure. It’s inhumane to continue to turn away these migrants, many of whom have legitimate asylum claims, under this guise. Lawmakers should work to fix the immigration system, but Title 42 must go, and the Biden admin. is ready to move on.
