CBP to send more agents to border to ready for likely end to Title 42, immigration surge
|
[JustTheNews] Arizona Democrat Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly told President Biden they've "not yet seen evidence" of DHS plan to address end to Title 42
Customs and Border Protection is asking agents across the country to come to the southwest sector to assist with the soon-expected end of the Trump-administration's emergency use of the Title 42 federal health statute and a resulting surge in illegal immigration.
According to a CBP memo obtained by Just the News, the agency's Office of Field Operations is "anticipating increased operational tempo along the SWB, necessitating additional resources to assist with processing, facilitation, and enforcement, as well as to limit operational disruptions."
The office also suggests in the memo that such as surge could begin as early as next week and asks for "supervisory and non-supervisory CBP officers" to deploy to that sector's ports of entry "for up to 60 days, with the possibility to extend. The anticipated start date for this assignment is April 5, 2022, with expected travel on April 4, 2022."
Title 42 is a public health statute that was enacted in the 1940s and now gives the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention authority to determine whether a communicable disease in a foreign country poses a serious threat of spreading in the U.S. through people entering the country.
The Trump administration in March 2020, amid the early surge in COVID-19 deaths, imposed the statute so that CBP could immediately remove anyone entering the country without authorization and to close the border to nonessential travel in the "interest of public health."
The recent CPD memo also warns that those coming to the border to work should expect "irregular shifts and schedules, including holidays and weekends" and that overtime may be authorized as necessary.
More than 1.7 million illegal immigrants have been deported since the statue was impose roughly two years ago, according statistics from the CBP, which on Monday did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Biden administration is expected to review Title 42 on Wednesday.
Earlier this month, the administration announced that it would cease deportations of unaccompanied immigrant children under Title 42.
