DHS Secretary Mayorkas Preparing for 18,000 Illegal Migrants Per Day Post Title 42
Department of Home Land Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is planning for up to 18,000 illegal migrants a day after Title 42 expires.
On CNN’s State of the Union, host Dana Bash asked Mayorkas if his department is set to deal with 18,000 migrants crossing the southern border every day.
Mayorkas responded by saying his department is planning to deal with the surge but he added, “There is no question [if] in fact we reach that number, that is going to be an extraordinary strain on our system.”

Mayorkas refused to answer a question about why he thinks Americans will benefit from a surge at the southern border in response to the elimination of Title 42.
Rep. McClintock: "If Title 42 is allowed to expire, we could see 18,000-20,000 apprehensions a day. I would like to know why you think this benefits Americans ?"

The illegal migrant surge is a serious crisis and DHS is not trying to stop the huge flow into the U.S.
