Press Briefing on Title 42, Biden Border Crisis with Rep. Andy Biggs and The Heritage Foundation

We are experiencing the worst border crisis in American history—and it’s one being driven by the Biden administration’s open-borders policies. Under President Biden’s leadership, more than 757,000 illegal aliens have been released into this country, coupled with more than 600,000 got-aways who have evaded law enforcement altogether and reside in the interior. Now, the Biden administration is moving to end Title 42, a vital public health authority that has helped prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our communities. What has been the worst border crisis in our history is about to become orders of magnitude worse.

Representative Biggs, co-chairman of the Congressional Border Security Caucus, along with Heritage’s homeland security team, led by Lora Ries, Mark Morgan, and Tom Homan, lay out the consequences of Biden’s foolish decision to end Title 42 on the border, what Congress and the states can do to hold the administration accountable, and how private groups like Heritage are going to respond.
