DHS officials say they won’t have enough resources to cover the recording-breaking number of migrants at the southern border, as the CDC prepares to lift Title 42 on Monday, according to internal planning documents.
For now, DHS is using a $1.4 billion appropriation from Congress to handle a record level of border encounters, and planning to reprogram funding from other parts of the agency to handle what is expected to be an even higher number after the expiration of Title 42, the public health order issued to prevent the spread of Covid that has blocked more than 1.8 million migrants from entering the U.S. from Mexico since March 2020.
That memo cites funding allocated for the Biden administration’s family reunification task force, designed to find and reunite migrant parents and children separated by the Trump administration, as a “must” that cannot be sacrificed in order to secure the border. A U.S. Border Patrol agent hands bags for personal articles to migrants before they are taken for processing on Thursday in Yuma, Ariz.The additional funding is needed to increase space to hold migrants for processing, expand a program known as “alternatives to detention,” where migrants either wear an ankle monitor or check in by phone with an officer while they wait for their court hearing, and increase transportation of migrants, the documents say.
“DHS is working closely with the White House and other departments in federal government on efforts that are critical to successful management of the border,” said the spokeswoman. “Should additional resources be necessary, DHS will work with the White House to engage Congress on any potential need for supplemental appropriations.”
