We have to do more in border security.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Kelly&#8217;s comments come as the Biden administration has overseen an all-time high of 2.4 million border apprehensions during fiscal year 2022. More than one million of the apprehensions resulted in expulsions under Title 42, a rule that gives officials the power to quickly expel migrants. A federal judge struck down the policy last week but delayed its expiration for five weeks. Fifteen attorneys general filed a motion Monday to stop its termination.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because invalidation of the Title 42 Orders will directly harm the States, they now seek to intervene to offer a defense of the Title 42 policy so that its validity can be resolved on the merits, rather than through strategic surrender,&#8221; the AGs said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Kelly has faced criticism in recent years from law enforcement officials over immigration, with National Border Patrol Council president Brandon Judd and Arizona Police Association president Justin Harris <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/completely-absent-arizona-law-enforcement-leaders-slam-mark-kelly\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/completely-absent-arizona-law-enforcement-leaders-slam-mark-kelly\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1669232543918000&#038;usg=AOvVaw0oBAJXmW40VU1KB1MFBFRS\">alleging<\/a> Kelly has been &#8220;completely absent&#8221; on border security.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;It appears that he&#8217;ll give lip service to a topic, but then when push comes to shove, he&#8217;s right in step with his party,&#8221; Judd told the <em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em> in November 2021. &#8220;And we know that as far as his party goes with border security, they&#8217;re missing in action.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Living United for Change, a group that protests Immigration and Customs Enforcement and called for the defunding of the Phoenix Police Department, <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/elections\/mark-kelly-says-hes-a-criminal-justice-moderate-his-campaign-took-350k-from-a-soros-backed-defund-group\/\">spent<\/a> around $350,000 to help Kelly defeat Republican Blake Masters in this month&#8217;s midterm election.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Along with improving security, during the interview Kelly pointed to the &#8220;Dreamer&#8221; program and visa systems as areas for reform.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Our country would really benefit from stronger border security and comprehensive immigration reform,&#8221; the senator said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democratic senator Mark Kelly (Ariz.) in an interview Monday said his party is &#8220;not even close&#8221; to understanding the complexities of the migrant crisis at the southern border.<br \/>\nThe post Dem Mark Kelly Says His Party \u2018Not Even Close\u2019 To Understanding Border Crisis appeared first on Washington Free Beacon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1467,"featured_media":1748507,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[544],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1748504","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-free-beacon"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1748504","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1467"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1748504"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1748504\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1748507"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1748504"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1748504"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1748504"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
