What if the border of the United States is about to collapse? Mayor: No one is helping us Refugees | Adams

[The Epoch Times, Rhagfyr 17, 2022](Reported by Epoch Times reporter Shi Ping in New York) The midterm elections kept the subject of busing refugees in New York under wraps for a while, but in fact it has not stopped for a while. day, and refugees at the border are still hundreds of thousands every day Get off the bus terminal at 42nd Street on Eighth Avenue.

According to Fox TV’s report, just last Sunday (December 11), outside of El Paso (El Paso, Texas), those South Americans were still holding their bags and dragging their children, lined up like ants, wading across rivers, and camping under the boundary wall.

They have been biding their time to break into the border. These people are even more excited now, because December 21 is the day when former President Trump’s “Deportation of Illegal Immigrants” order No. 42 expires. At that time, these illegal immigrants can break through the US border gates and pour into the US with the momentum of breaking the embankment. According to a memo from the Department of Homeland Security obtained by CNN, once Order 42 expires, there will be an “immediate increase in the flow of immigration” and people located in northern Mexico will enter the United States States in force.

“Order No. 42” is a policy implemented by the Trump administration in March 2020, which allows border law enforcement agents to invoke Title 42 (Title 42) of the US Code when a new case of crown pneumonia occurs in the United States. prevent illegal access quickly. The order expires on 21 December this year.

According to the “English Epoch Times” citing data from the Department of Homeland Security on December 10, after Order 42 expires, the number of illegal immigrants coming in from the border every day will reach 14,000; on December 14, Fox News adjusted this data to 15,000 people a day.

And a large part of these people will be transported by the governor of Texas to New York City by bus. According to data from the New York City government, the number of “asylum seekers” from the border has reached 31,000. Recently, New York Mayor Adams has applied to the “Federal Emergency Management Agency” (FEMA) of the Biden administration for $1 billion in aid funds, but has not received any reply.

Adams told the media on Thursday (15th) that “no one has helped New York City” so far, and he is worried about the coming peak of refugees.

“We’ve only had a few days, and the problems are coming,” said Adams. “No one has helped us. We haven’t had a penny from anyone. This has to stop. We need help.”

Although he did not name them, anyone could hear him referring to the Gov. Kathy Hochul and President Joe Biden. “We shouldn’t be paying for this, we need help from Washington DC and the state.”

But Republican elected officials in New York point out that the refugee problem in New York will not go away unless the US border problem is fully resolved. Because the root of this issue lies in the federal government’s border policy.

Staten Island Republican Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis reposted her statement to the New York Post on Twitter on the 16th, saying that “hard-pressed New York taxpayers” will pay for the cost of hosting refugees, in ” unsustainable” and “unfair”.

“Why didn’t Mayor Adams ask President Biden to close the border? Why didn’t he challenge the ‘Right to Asylum Act’ that was meant for citizens? The vast majority of people who come to our country illegally and they are not eligible for said Mario.

In October, Adams declared a “state of emergency” for refugees in New York City. But according to Adams’ assistant revealed by the “Truth Project” (Veritas Project) on October 20, “the federal government will not give money to New York City” because “it will make Biden look bad.”

At the federal level, Biden, who has always insisted on opening the border, does not know what to do now, and is appealing against the ruling of the Federal Court and asking for an extension to the period of validity of Order No. 42. Because federal judge Su Liwen (Emmet Sullivan) has ruled that Trump’s law is “illegal.” Biden’s appeal was supported by 19 Republican states.

According to the English Epoch Times, Blas Nunez Neto, acting secretary of border and immigration policy for the Department of Homeland Security, said at the beginning of the month that if Order 42 were to expire, they would switch to Article 8 (Title 8) on for enforcement. . This Article 8 is also a federal law that allows the deportation of illegal immigrants who do not qualify for refugee status.

According to the data, in FY 2022, the border deported 1.1 million illegal immigrants under Section 8 laws; 1 million under Order 42.

New York City officials estimated last week that if Order 42 expires, the number of illegal immigrants arriving in New York City per day will increase from 1,700 to 2,400. ◇
