Venezuelan migrants seeking asylum will be expelled to Mexico


Asylum-seeking Venezuelan migrants, who cross the border illegally, will be expelled back to Mexico. Wednesday, a new migration agreement was announced by the U.S. and Mexico. It invokes the use of a pandemic-era border policy known as Title 42, which President Biden vowed to cancel.

Under Title 42, Venezuelan migrants crossing the southern border illegally to seek asylum will now be expelled back to Mexico.

At the same time, the Biden administration is also creating a new immigration program which will allow up to 24,000 Venezuelans to move to the states legally. The administration says it’s a move to deter migrants from attempting the dangerous, and sometimes deadly, crossing. 

The U.S. Border Patrol in Del Rio, Texas reported that – just last week – they apprehended 9,516 migrants trying to cross the border, and that they were unable to stop more than 3,344 from entering the United States.
