Title 42 suspended title 8 laws and authority use to deter and penalize illegal border crossing. The Right was using it to undermine legal asylum under 8 US code 1158. It also suspends 8 US code 1325; the misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty for crossing the border illegally. And 8 US code 1326; stiffer penalties for crossing the border. That leaves out any legal penalty or deterrent for those crossing and stops legal asylum, with few exceptions under title 42. Makes it difficult to enforce immigration laws when Republicans are fighting in court to undermine our legal enforcement. With title 42 suspending enforcement that means many immigrants recross multiple times causing apprehension numbers to be inflated. The current rate of multiple returns is about 40% of border crossers. We had a 17 year decline in southern border crossing to the lowest point in 50 years prior to Trump and his polices. By 2019 Trumps policies doubled the number of people crossing the southern border to 977,000. He only saw a reduction for the first 9 months of 2020 due to covid, before it went back to a 20 year monthly high in October of 2020. It has remained a 20 year high and increasing ever since under Trumps failed policies and Title 42.

Not how our laws or the process works, do you guys even bother to learn?

Why would they be working illegally, if they are hear legally under our asylum laws? And they have the correct documentation to allow them to work and pay taxes, that they can not benefit from and we do. Learn our laws and how they work. Stop bitching because you have no clue what is going on.

That would not be how asylum works, the point is that they can not return home. Learn the difference between asylum, refugee, a visa, citizenship, and someone trying to avoid detection. They are not the same and do not have the same laws.

@aftermathsample305 No they wont. Stop making sh it up just because you have no understanding how non citizens work in this country legally. Try having a clue. Yes they are working legally yes they pay taxes with an individual tax identification number given to immigrants who can work legally in the US. It allows for taxes to be taken from them and does not allow them to benefit as they do not have a SSN. How do you think green card and visa immigrants work legally?

@aftermathsample305 It's just non stop rhetoric and propaganda. Yes the majority those who get that far into the process show up for their hearings. Just because Trumps says something out of the blue with no evidence or facts to back it up, does not make it reality. Do the research. You are being lied to about the border. You do not care that you are being lied to by your media and leadership, because you agree with the lie.

Due to false claims of voter fraud, asylee’s not showing up for court, criminal activity, and just right wing claims used to breed hate. The Right has unilaterally decided to undermine legal asylum. And have dubbed asylum (8 USC 1158) as an open border policy, and fed that buzz word to a low informed base who have no understanding of immigration laws. Trumps zero tolerance policy to separate children, Remain in Mexico, Title 42. All attempts to stop legal asylum under US laws that have been in place for over 40 years. Yet now using it to trigger a base that is now openly full of hate on immigrants and this hate is now fed by GOP governors feeding off of that for votes. This is to target votes from GOP supporters who immoral views support separating children as a deterrent, using lethal force, lying to immigrants to ship them to dem cities to stick it to libs, incarceration, placing them in the hands of traffickers. All because of immigrants who may or may not have violated a misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty. And the Right wing base just does not understand our law.
