The United States is just one day away from the expected expiration of Title 42 as the crisis at the southern border intensifies and more migrants make their way to the Chicago area.
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Tuesday declared a state of emergency in response to an influx of migrants who have arrived from the southern border in recent months.
Thursday night, pandemic-related restrictions on immigration -- known as Title 42 – is expected to come to an end, but Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas says it will actually get tougher for migrants to enter the country. As Title 42 expires, Title 8 will come back into play, meaning that U.S. officials will start denying asylum to migrants who try to cross the border without first seeking protection in a country they passed through.Chicago has seen over 8,000 asylum-seekers enter the city since last summer and about 450 of those people are using police stations as shelters. Title 42 is expected to be lifted on May 11, which may result in even more buses as all of the citys respire centers reach capacity.
"Let me be clear, the lifting of the Title 42 public health order does not mean our border is open. In fact, it is the contrary," Mayorkas said. "Our use of our immigration enforcement authorities under title eight of the United States code means tougher consequences for people who cross the border illegally."
If a person is removed under Title 8, they are subject to a five-year bar on re-entering the country and can face charges if they try to cross again. that I have read and agree
