The draft framework by Kyrsten Sinema comes less than three weeks before the slated end of Title 42, the Trump-era policy that allows border officials to rapidly expel migrants.
Dec. 21 of Title 42, the Trump-era health policy that allows border officials to rapidly expel migrants. Alongside extending Title 42, the framework would protect undocumented youth who came to the U.S. as children and now face an uncertain future.
"We don't think it's humane how Title 42 has been implemented in treating migrants because they're not getting the due process," said José Patiño, vice president of education and external affairs at Aliento, a youth-based community group advocating for undocumented and mixed-status families.Patiño said the initiative was a good starting point in protecting Dreamers but held reservations about the other aspects included in the draft.
Title 42 would be slated to end after at least one year if the regional processing centers, which would serve to house migrants, are up and running. The draft would also include more resources to expedite the removal of migrants who don’t qualify for asylum from the country. “The proposed framework would extend the dangerous Title 42 border closure and, in an attempt to further 'streamline' already expedited deportation procedures, this proposal will eliminate essentially all access to counsel and leave only a facade of due process in a system stacked against asylum seekers.”
