Yvette Herrell\u2019s Pause Act, a bill that would allow border officials to continue enforcing a Trump-era public health order known as Title 42 by a vote of 214-195, according to a statement. The Trump-era public health order known as Title 42, was implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, and border officials have used the directive to rapidly expel tens of thousands of migrants to Mexico, Axios <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/scoop-white-house-eyes-ending-migrant-family-expulsion-b6d0a178-001e-41e8-9f5b-17cc7547cccc.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reported<\/a> June 20.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTitle 42 is the only major Trump-era border policy left in place under the administration. As it allows the Border Patrol to quickly expel illegal immigrants, sending them back across the border, instead of placing them in congregate facilities where outbreaks of COVID-19 and other variants are all but guaranteed,\u201d Herrell said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnding Title 42 would turn what is already a crisis into an unmitigated, uncontrollable, and undeniable catastrophe,\u201d Herrell added.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" readability=\"8.9375\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Ending Title 42 would turn what is already a crisis into an unmitigated, uncontrollable, and undeniable catastrophe. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NVEFCK6cNL\">https:\/\/t.co\/NVEFCK6cNL<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rep.

Border officials expelled around 295,000 migrants from February through April, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbp.gov\/newsroom\/stats\/southwest-land-border-encounters\">according<\/a> to Customs and Border Protection (CBP). <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/06\/21\/biden-admin-title-42-end-july\/\">(RELATED: Biden Admin Considering Ending The Public Heath Order Allowing Officials To Expel Migrants Next Month)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Democrats have criticized the Biden administration for allowing border officials to continue expelling migrants under Title 42 since COVID-19 vaccination rates have increased in the U.S., according to Axios. Nearly 55% of American\u2019s have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and around 47% are fully vaccinated, Reuters <a href=\"https:\/\/graphics.reuters.com\/world-coronavirus-tracker-and-maps\/vaccination-rollout-and-access\/\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnding Title 42 now, while fewer than half of American citizens are fully vaccinated, sends the message that illegal immigration is more important than protecting Americans,\u201d Herrell said in a statement. \u201cWe must preserve Title 42 border restrictions until all local, state, and federal government restrictions end; until all state and federal public health emergencies end; and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) COVID-19 travel risk levels for Canada and Mexico have been reduced to Level 1.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the administration will keep Title 42 in place in accordance with CDC guidelines, the Daily Caller News Foundation <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/05\/26\/alejandro-mayorkas-customs-and-border-protection-department-of-homeland-security-joe-biden\/\">reported<\/a> in May. The CDC declined to comment on when the restrictions would be lifted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThink from October to December 2020, in the previous administration there were 185,000 expulsions made under Title 42 \u2026 that was 85% of all encounters,\u201d Republican Texas Rep. Chip Roy said in a statement. \u201cCompare to the Biden administration since relaxing Title 42, not yet eliminating it although that\u2019s allegedly coming, relaxing it, only 64% of encounters were enforced between February to April 2021 leaving 289,000 exceptions under Title 42.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Border officials encountered a record number of migrants totaling over 180,000 people attempting to illegally enter the U.S. at the southern border in May, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbp.gov\/newsroom\/stats\/southwest-land-border-encounters\">according<\/a> to CBP.<\/p>\n<p>Content created by The Daily Caller News Foundation is available without charge to any eligible news publisher that can provide a large audience.
