Nonprofit Border Kindness leaves food, water, warm clothing and more for migrants crossing the border and plan to continue, regardless of Title 42's future.
Border crossings which include undocumented migrants who present themselves at legal ports of entry hit a record monthly high of 256,000 in December 2022.According to the Department of Homeland Security, they had encounters with approximately 130,000 undocumented migrants crossing the border between legal ports of entry in January.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the decline is because of new Biden Administration policies that opened legal pathways for some migrants to apply for asylum while also blocking more migrants from entering at the border under Title 42 COVID restrictions.“It’s hard to speak firsthand on someone’s journey or someone’s reasons for crossing.
Title 42 has blocked more than 2 million border crossings and is likely to end in May, barring a successful court challenge. “With Title 42 coming to an end soon I don’t know but we will be prepared. We will be ready, we will continue our work that we are doing out there on a weekly basis,” Cordero said.
