Social Media Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 After more than three years, a controversial Trump-era immigration policy known as Title 42 is set to expire at 11:59 PM (05:59 GMT) 11 May, when officials are bracing for an influx of migrants at the US-Mexico border. The policy has long faced fierce criticism from immigration advocates and some Democrats who believed it prevented many asylum seekers from coming into the country. Republicans have argued that the policy should remain in place to stop illegal border crossings, fuelling an increasingly intense and politicised immigration debate ahead of the 2024 election. Here's what you need to know about Title 42. What is Title 42 and why is it ending? Title 42 dates back to a 1944 law known as the Public Health Act, which granted US authorities emergency powers to prevent the spread of diseases. The policy came to the forefront of US immigration policy in March 2020, when the Trump administration invoked the statute to stop the spread of Covid-19 across its borders. With Title 42 in place, US authorities were able to swiftly expel would-be migrants attempting to cross the border from Mexico - including those seeking humanitarian asylum - using the pandemic as justification.

vandeventer Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 When Title 42 ends, there will be a lot more of the same. So what will Biden do? People coming from over 160 countries, in time most may think life was much better in the country they left. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ridiculous DHS Mayorkas can stare at the camera and chant "the border is secure" while waves of illegal immigrants charge the fences and flood the border. I think the number now is 5,000 per day. Expect it to increase. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Isaan sailor Posted May 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2023 Homeland Security Secretary Myorkis claims the border is closed.

Over a full 4 year term we are looking at 500 days. Plus he is rarely/never available to the press, either for interviews or press conferences. Also works from 10-4 most days, if not less. I am sure he can safely take care of immigration policy from his beach house.... wonder if Governor Abbot has plans to send some "pre-Americans" to Delaware? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanaguma Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Ten thousand people a day are crossing the border illegally. Ten thousand. IF Congress had funded the construction of a border barrier- call it a wall, fence, whatever, and backed it up with real force, this would not be happening. But sadly congressman Hank Johnson of Georgia let the cat out of the bag. He said; "Those folks coming across the border are the ones who are helping to put food on our table. Without them, we are not able to eat... We would have nobody taking care of the construction of our homes, nobody cleaning up in the hospitals." In other words, we need brown people to do the crap jobs in this country. What a racist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be NO humanitarian asylum granted from the Mexican or Canadian border. Imm shouldn't even accept the applications.
