DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas dodged on how many people the agency expects to come to the border after Title 42 ends.
On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas dodged on how many people the agency expects to come to the border after Title 42 ends, but said that approximately 7,000 people are crossing the border a day, and over half are being expelled under Title 42.Mayorkas responded, “So, we — our responsibility is to plan, to prepare for different eventualities, for different possibilities, and then to execute according to the possibilities that are actually realized.
Tapper then asked, “What’s the situation at the border right now? How many undocumented immigrants are crossing the border?”After clarifying that he meant 7,000 people a day, Mayorkas added, “And the disposition that we administer depends on the profile of the individual and how the law provides for them to be addressed. For example, we are expelling, under the Title 42 authority that we are now exercising, and we will continue to exercise until May 23, over 50% of them.
