Why is Title 42 ending, and what's happening at the border?

"In fiscal year 2022, Border Patrol recorded more than 2 million apprehensions, an all-time high."

"The situation along the southern border is unprecedented in many ways."

"The Biden administration's strategy to manage migration to the southern border once Title 42 expires relies on the combination of expanded opportunities for migrants to enter the U.S. legally with restrictive measures designed to deter illegal crossings."

"On Wednesday, the administration finalized a rule that will disqualify migrants from asylum if they enter the U.S. without permission after failing to seek protection in a third country, like Mexico, en route to American soil."

"The legal threshold to secure asylum -- you have to prove you were persecuted because of certain reasons, like your religion or politics -- is very high, and economic hardship or a desire to reunite with family are not grounds for U.S. asylum."

"So not all of these migrants will qualify for asylum."

"Migrants are not released from federal custody unless CBP determines they are not a threat to public safety or national security."

"The Biden administration's strategy to manage migration to the southern border once Title 42 expires relies on the combination of expanded opportunities for migrants to enter the U.S. legally with restrictive measures designed to deter illegal crossings."

This is a negative sentiment.

"In preparation, the Biden administration has implemented stricter deportation efforts and asylum restrictions that represent major shifts in U.S. policy."

This is a negative sentiment.
