Jim Jordan Calls Out Dems Who Want Biden to End Title 42 at the Southern Border: ‘Expect Immediate Chaos’ if They Nix the Program

U.S. House Rep Jim Jordan (R-OH) today called out Democrats who want Joe Biden to end Title 42 at the southern border.

Jordan reported, “Democrats wants to end Title 42 at the southern border.”

“It’s one of our last lines of defense against illegal immigration,” Jordan explained.

Jordan declared, “If they nix the program now, expect immediate chaos.”

It was reported yesterday that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told reporters in a call, “Title 42 has been nothing short of disastrous for immigrant families seeking asylum from the horrors in their own countries.”

“It is unacceptable that this policy continues to be used indiscriminately to remove migrants with valid refugee claims from our Southern border,” Schumer continued.

Schumer added, “I continue to be disappointed, deeply disappointed in the administration’s response. Title 42 goes against everything this country stands for.”

The Biden administration has indicated it intends to end Title 42 as soon as it can, and according to a recent BuzzFeed News report, the Biden administration is planning to tell Mexico that it may soon end the program.

U.S. Sen Bob Menendez (D-NJ) claimed, “The continued use of Title 42 to expel migrants without screening has created life-threatening conditions and significantly increased the number of dangerous border crossings. In many cases, it has also increased the public health risks that the order claims to address. It is neither humane nor effective in managing migration. In fact, it’s a threat to our border security.”

Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chair Raul Ruiz, D-Calif. also weighed in on the situation in a statement where he suggested, “Using the pandemic as an excuse to keep implementing the Trump Title 42 policy — that has prevented millions of asylum seekers from refuge — must end.”
