A judge this week temporarily delayed the Biden administration’s announced intention to lift Title 42, the public-health measure that allows the Border Patrol to turn away illegal border-crossers without a hearing.
In a year of record illegal immigration (with more than 200,000 illegal-immigrant “encounters” last month alone), Title 42 is the only thing preventing today’s Biden Border Crisis from turning into tomorrow’s Biden Border Catastrophe.
But despite the judge’s temporary reprieve, Title 42 is going to end at some point, just like other COVID restrictions.
And then what?
Many critics of ending Title 42 — both Republicans and Democrats — have hit the White House for not first developing a plan to deal with the inevitable surge (on top of the current surge) in illegal crossings. Actually, there is a plan — it just doesn’t deal with the problem you think.
When most people imagine an appropriate response to the post-Title 42 tsunami at the border, they naturally think of ways to stop people from coming across. In other words, the problem they think needs to be addressed is the excessive number of foreigners trying to get in.
To the White House, the problem is not illegal immigration. It’s how to hide it.But President Biden’s administration is opposed to all the measures that might address that problem — it’s against Remain in Mexico, against keeping illegal immigrants in detention, against deporting illegal immigrants who are here, against even using ankle monitors to keep track of them.
A surge in crossings at the border is OK with Biden and his people; what they fear is how it will look to the public: the additional disorder, the crowding in holding centers, the news photos like those of Haitians camped under the bridge in Del Rio, Texas, last fall. It’s a political problem, not a policy one.
And so the White House plan for a post-Title 42 border isn’t focused on how to prevent the illegal flow but, in the words of press secretary Jen Psaki, how to “more efficiently process migrants” into the United States.
