Description
As Title 42 is set to expire next month, the number of migrants apprehended illegally crossing the southern border has increased by 25 percent.
That was just in the month of March, compared to February.
More than 160,000 migrants were apprehended last month, and US border officials don't anticipate that number slowing down anytime soon.
Officials expect 13,000 migrants to cross each day when Title 42 expires in early May. Title 42 is a pandemic-era policy used to expel migrants seeking asylum over COVID concerns.
And as more migrants are expected to cross the US-Mexico border, historically that could mean more injuries and even deaths.
The University of San Diego is raising awareness about this issue in a powerful exhibit inside the Copley Library.
