DHS Secretary Mayorkas has been in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas to reinforce the Biden administration’s plans to stop using Title 42, a pandemic-era restriction that expelled migrants immediately without an asylum hearing.
BROWNSVILLE, Texas — As border authorities made hundreds of arrests amid a new influx of migrants to the southern U.S. border, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the administration is ready for the end of Title 42 because it has already been working to cut out smugglers.
The Rio Grande Valley Border Patrol sector that includes Brownsville registered some 2,300 apprehensions Friday morning. However some officials have said tens of thousands more could arrive after the administration ends Title 42."The landscape at the border has changed over the past 10 years. No longer are migrants able to just come to the border on their own. That land south of our border is controlled by smugglers and we are cutting them out," he said.
Trying to warn many who are arriving and who could outstrip the capacity of border facilities and the staff members who must process the migrants, Mayorkas said: “You are risking your lives and life savings only to meet a consequence that you do not expect at our southern border.” The Biden administration has made some exceptions to the law, allowing 30,000 Venezuelans, Haitians, Cubans and Nicaraguans to"parole" into the U.S. each month, giving them a temporary stay and chance to work. Also, it has been allowing for some family reunification and for people with sponsors to enter the country.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced Friday it is expanding the number of daily appointments available from about 800 to about 1,000 beginning May 12 and giving people 23 hours each day to make an appointment rather than at a designated time. A percentage of appointments will go to people who have set up their app profiles the earliest, so those waiting the longest to get an appointment are prioritized, CBP said in its statement.
