The number of people crossing the border is expected to double with the repeal of Title 42.
In Philadelphia, the most recent bus of migrants arrived early Wednesday morning. The city has been preparing for months by adding shelter capacity and case management support via contracted providers. Since November, Philadelphia has received over 800 asylum seekers and 26 buses.
The end of Title 42 marks a major policy shift for how the Biden administration processes migrants at the border, including the pathway for seeking asylum. Under new rules, migrants claiming asylum must first seek refuge and be denied in another country before arriving in the U.S. They also must schedule an appointment at a U.S. border point of entry using an app.
Many mayors are frustrated by what they say is a lack of guidance from the Biden administration. In New York, Adams said his city has “been left without the necessary support to manage the crisis.” In El Paso, Mayor Oscar Leeser called for more guidance from the federal government, warning the city is confronting the “unknown.” But he defended the White House as a good partner and said his team has been working with the administration very closely.
