Defying expectations, border agents not seeing a rush of migrants after end of Title 42
When Title 42 expired Thursday, many people thought migrants would rush to the southern border after seeing roughly 10,000 asylum seekers Tuesday."The message from advocates to people in border cities was really to hold off until we have better information, until we know that it's going to be safe and easy for you to seek protection. And I think that message was able to get out there," said Lindsay Toczylowski, executive director of Immigrant Defenders Law Center.
As that came to an end, President Joe Biden's administration put new restrictions in place for migrants. The U.S. will turn away any non-Mexican migrant who didn't first seek asylum in another country. If those rules are not followed, migrants could face deportation and a five-year ban on entering the U.S.
