The measure, enacted during the pandemic, allowed for the immediate repatriation of undocumented immigrants crossing the U.S. land border.
Past are the direct re-promotions at the American border from midnight (Washington time – 5 am Greece time), as the measure known as Title 42 came.
The measure, which was taken during the pandemic, allowed for the immediate repatriation of undocumented immigrants crossing the US land border.
Title 42 was activated in 2020 by the administration of former President Donald Trump, in the name of dealing with the pandemic. Biden’s successor extended his term.
The administration of US President Joe Biden is concerned that there will be a massive influx of immigrants to border cities. The United States today deployed more by 25,000 police officers and military personnel on the border with Mexico, while at the same time adopting new restrictions on the right to asylum, just hours before the lifting of a measure.
The cities of El Paso, Brownsville and Laredo have declared local states of emergency to increase the resources they can devote to dealing with the immigrants already present, mostly people from Latin America. In El Paso, hundreds of people are sleeping on the streets, many on cardboard.
“Day of Dishonor”
“Tomorrow (s.s. today) will be a day of dishonor. You will have tens of thousands of people pouring into our country.” Trump argued in an interview, an indirect reference to President Roosevelt’s speech when the Japanese attacked the US at Pearl Harbor.
“If people are sick and have infectious diseases and many other problems, we don’t want them in our country. We have enough problems right now. We have problems like we’ve never had in the history of our country,” said Trump, who is running for president in 2024.
