BETO IS MORE LIBERAL ON BORDER SECURITY THAN NATIONAL DEMOCRATS

“Today, delusional liberal Beto O’Rourke once again called for ending Title 42, which even national Democrats have opposed due to the flood of illegal immigrants who will swamp our border if it is ended. Once again Beto shows he would rather stand with President Biden instead of protecting Texas communities.” – Mark Miner, Communications Director

Today O’Rourke Reiterated He Supports Ending Title 42. SVITEK TWEET: “Caught up with [Beto O’Rourke] today in San Antonio about the end of Title 42, which he’s called for. He reiterated his argument/reasoning that ‘beyond not being honest to the law,’ Title 42 is ‘creating more chaos at the border’ by leading to more repeat crossing attempts.” (Twitter.com, 4/8/22)

Ending Title 42 Could Lead To 18,000 Illegal Immigrants A Day Reaching The U.S. Border With Mexico, Leading National Democrats To Call To Keep The Program:

The Department Of Homeland Security Estimates “As Many As 18,000 Migrants Per Day At The Southern Border If Title 42 Is Revoked.” “The Department of Homeland Security is bracing for as many as 18,000 migrants per day at the southern border if Title 42 is revoked, according to senior DHS officials who briefed reporters on Tuesday.” (Luke Barr, “US Bracing For Influx Of Migrants At Southern Border If Title 42 Revoked: DHS,” ABC News, 3/29/22)

Politico: “The Four Most Vulnerable Senate Democrats… Have All Spoken Out Against The Biden Administration’s Move (On Title 42).” “The four most vulnerable Senate Democrats — Sens. Mark Kelly of Arizona, Raphael Warnock of Georgia, Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire — have all spoken out against the Biden administration’s move (on Title 42), echoing GOP concerns about a coming spike in the number of migrants arriving at the border.” (Sabrina Rodriguez, “‘Terrible’ Messaging On Lifting Of Trump-Era Border Restriction Alarms Dems,” Politico, 4/5/22)

·  Nevada Democrat Senator Catherine Cortez Masto On The Ending Of Title 42: “This Is The Wrong Way To Do This And It Will Leave The Administration Unprepared For A Surge At The Border.” (Sabrina Rodriguez, “‘Terrible’ Messaging On Lifting Of Trump-Era Border Restriction Alarms Dems,” Politico, 4/5/22)

·  (Arizona Democrat Senator Mark) Kelly Called (Ending Title 42) The ‘Wrong Decision,’ Adding That ‘It’s Clear That This Administration’s Lack Of A Plan To Deal With This Crisis Will Further Strain Our Border Communities.’” (Sabrina Rodriguez, “‘Terrible’ Messaging On Lifting Of Trump-Era Border Restriction Alarms Dems,” Politico, 4/5/22)

Politico Noted “The (Biden) Administration Itself Has Seemingly Sought To Distance Itself” From Ending Title 42, With Biden’s HHS Secretary And His Communications Director Blaming The CDC For The Decision. “The (Biden) administration itself has seemingly sought to distance itself from the fallout. Officials, including Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and White House communications director Kate Bedingfield, have emphasized that the decision to lift the order rests solely on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. ‘Title 42 is not an immigration authority, but rather a public health authority used by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to protect against the spread of communicable disease,’ Mayorkas said in a statement.” (Sabrina Rodriguez, “‘Terrible’ Messaging On Lifting Of Trump-Era Border Restriction Alarms Dems,” Politico, 4/5/22)
