@Un-Burdened "I only see one of your comments. Title 42 was only for covid, so tell me how, prior to that, illegal immigration was a fraction of what it is now.
Please enlighten me because I work and don't have time to research all of this.
From my understanding, the only way republicans are standing in they way is blocking funding. Rightfully so. We've already spent more under Biden than under Trump.
Your argument does not fall in line with what I'm hearing from Congress.
Sounds more like the political jargon spewed by the press secretary."
The Republican party's goal is to stop what they like to call an open border policy and catch and release. That would be title 8 USC 1158 and 8 USC 1225, the right to cross our border at any point and request asylum and if they can prove to an asylum agent they have a creditable fear of return they are to be detained in the US. this is part of article 31 of the Geneva convention, in our INA laws, and confirmed through out courts. The first step was Trump criminal charges and child seperation policy against immigrants crossing between check points who were in violation of 8 USC 1325. This was a misdomeanor that carried a civil penalty, but the Right needed a bigger deterent to fullfill their goal. That violated 8 USC 1158. Next step was to reduce the ability to be detained in the US, and the use of Remain in Mexico that violated 8 USC1225 to be detained in the US under our protection. Both of thse poilies created in the summer of 2018. By the end of 2019 fiscal year end we were at a record level of those crossing between check points going back to 2006, with Trumps hard line policies only forcing more to cross between check popints ot get their claims heard. This is when the trafficking, Coyotes, and cartels turned things up as it began overwelming border patrol. 2020 and covid stopped alot of the traffick coming over the border and Steve Miller took advantager of political appointees at the CDC to invoke title 42. That pretty much stopped title 8 enforcement including stiffer penalties for immigrants who had already been dined asylum. As time went on the number of peopel crossing munltiple times increased with no penalties under tilte 8 USC 1326. Any one crossing today is processed under title 8 enforcement. Adn while that now gives them a right to asylum request for protections, it takes longer to process legally with a process that was already overwelmed by the Rights dismattling of what was wrorking before Trump. Was this the Rights gaol to cause big government to go bad to force stricter laws to fit their agenda. Biden is following the law. Fund DHS so they can process tham as that is the law, or find a way to fix it in congress without ignorning our constitution and blaming your mess on the left.
