The Biden Administration's dereliction of duty at the border
With illegal immigrant encounters at the U.S. southern border being the highest on record, Congressman Chip Roy (R-Texas) warns that ending Title 42 will cause even greater harm to Americans and those crossing illegally, and is gross negligence by the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas.
“That is a complete dereliction of duty, it is endangering the American people,” Roy told the host of NTD’s Capitol Report, Steve Lance, during a recent interview. “For the people that are looking at this for the first time and don’t know what Title 42 is, it’s literally the only thing that is standing between us and a completely wide-open border.”

Title 42 was put in place in March 2020. The Biden administration tried to end Title 42 in 2021 but could not because of the surge in the pandemic. Roy warned that when the Biden administration takes away Title 42, double the number of illegal immigrants will be released into the United States.
According to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP), there were over 164,000 encounters at the southern border in February 2022, which is a dramatic increase from previous years.
“This administration has been using it less than the Trump administration, but has been using it at least enough to turn away about half the folks. Now let’s put that in context. In all of March, we’re looking at about 200,000 people, of whom about 100,000 would be turned away under Title 42.”
Roy said the current immigration policies embolden and enrich drug cartels.

Biden's immigration policy is worthy of his impeachment and that of Mayorkas. If Republicans retake Congress impeachment should be on the agenda.
