Immigration workers have been warned by the Biden administration that they will have to process as much as 1,200 immigration claims per day, or 312,000 per year, in the coming months.
This would be due to the administration's plans to do away with Title 42, which barred people from legally petitioning the government for immigration status due to the health emergency. This is despite the fact that the Delta variant of COVID-19 is now working its way through the US.
According to Newsmax, an anonymous senior official with the Border Patrol agency told the press:
"Border Patrol agents, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, and customs officers are stretched thin trying to protect and secure our border. Asking them to process roughly 6,000 people a week undoubtedly strain already thin resources and increase human trafficking and drug smuggling."
"All of these people will become permanent residents. There's no political will from the Biden administration to deport families once they're already admitted. The White House knows that. The end of Title 42 will result in de facto open borders."
The US immigration system has already found itself stretched thinner than ever before, with record numbers of people arriving at the Texas/Nuevo Leon border hoping to be let in and claiming asylum.
