According to DHS, about 85,000 migrants have been repatriated since Title 42 was lifted, an increase of 65% since the same period last year.
A woman with a young child boards an ICE Air flight back to Honduras on Wednesday in Harlingen, Texas.When President Joe Biden lifted the pandemic-era border restriction known as Title 42 in May, government officials expected a steep increase in the number of migrants coming into the United States.
A central part of that effort could be seen here on the tarmac at an airport in the Rio Grande Valley, where on Wednesday morning, more than 100 migrants — mostly women and children — were stepping off buses and onto a chartered plane that would take them back to Honduras. “The Department is sending a clear message about the consequences of coming to the United States and seeking asylum improperly,” said Miguel Vergara, ICE Harlingen field office director.
The Biden administration insists the immigration process is now more orderly. But critics say that the drop in illegal crossings is misleading, and that migrants have instead been pushed to ports of entry and are now just being classified differently. A tent camp in Matamoros, Mexico, has swelled to more than 1,000 people. Migrant children play in the dirt as the stench of sewage hangs in the air, baking in the almost 100 degrees Fahrenheit heat. One woman said she fears being sexually assaulted at night in the camp, just steps from the U.S. port of entry.Gladys Cañas, who runs the group Ayudandoles a Triunfar — a migrant advocacy group — spoke to migrants and warned them not to cross into the U.S.
