Greg Stanton released the following statement ahead of the end of Title 42 on May 11:\n\n\u201cThis Administration has insisted for months and months that it would be ready to handle the surge of traffic once Title 42 is lifted\u2014but it has proven unable to even adequately deal with the border traffic we have now. They are only fooling themselves, and those of us who work with communities on the front lines know better.\n\nIt\u2019s fallen on border towns, local law enforcement and humanitarian groups to pick up the burden of the federal government\u2019s negligence for many, many years\u2014and it\u2019s only gotten worse. I am deeply frustrated the Administration has failed to take full advantage of the time afforded to it, despite repeated bipartisan calls from me and my colleagues to either seek emergency resources from Congress or use the full weight of the Executive Branch to push for long-overdue immigration and border security reform.\u201d\n\nIn November 2022, Stanton directly appealed to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas [LINK], writing, \u201cIt has been clear for months: changing America\u2019s policy on Title 42 without a plan in place and the resources necessary will overwhelm communities and humanitarian organizations along the Southwest border.\u201d He also requested \u201ca full accounting of the Administration\u2019s plan\u201d and a formal, written request for \u201cany additional funding DHS may need to secure the border while providing a safe lawful, and humane processing system for arriving migrants.\u201d\n\nAfter the Biden Administration announced in January 2023 that it would \u201csurge additional resources\u201d to the border in anticipation of Title 42 being lifted, Stanton said he \u201cexpect[ed] the Administration to provide much more detail about exactly how these funds will be put to use\u2014to Congress and to border communities.\u201d [LINK]", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T23:55:44Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://stanton.house.gov/2023/5/stanton-statement-ahead-of-title-42-expiration"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.9591141026467085, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
