.SenatorSinema and SenThomTillis are urging their colleagues to get on board with their legislation allowing Border Patrol agents to turn away migrants who cross into the US without a hearing, as Title 42 is set to expire at midnight.
Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Thom Tillis are urging their colleagues to get on board with their legislation allowing Border Patrol agents to turn away migrants who cross into the United States without a hearing, as Title 42, the pandemic-era expulsion policy, is set to expire at midnight on Friday.
The two senators introduced legislation last week that would extend Title 42 for another two years, buying Congress time to negotiate a larger immigration reform bill. Their joint proposal would give Border Patrol agents the same expulsion authority as Title 42, but it would not be connected to the COVID-19 public health emergency.

“I think the important thing here is to notice that for the first time in well over a decade and a half, you have House and Senate members actually speaking with one another,” Sinema said.
