Biden doesn’t need Title 42 to stop the border crisis — he needs ‘Remain in Mexico’

Published April 19, 2022 4:01am ET



A Biden administration record 221,303 migrants were arrested illegally crossing the southern border in March, breaking the previous record of 213,593 arrests set last July. Just under half of these migrants, 109,549, were expelled under the Title 42 public health law. Another 12,070 were expelled under the usual Title 8 immigration system.

That means the Biden administration let almost 100,000 migrants into the United States in March, most of them completely free to travel wherever they want with just a mere promise that they will contact Department of Homeland Security officials after they reach their final destination.
