GOP lawmaker argues Title 42 should be extended because of fentanyl crisis

Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) floated the possibility of using the fentanyl crisis as justification to extend Title 42. 

Title 42, a pandemic-era policy that allows for the rapid expulsion of illegal immigrants without asylum hearings, is set to expire Thursday, setting the stage for an expected surge at the border. Mills slammed the Biden administration for its handling of the situation amid fears of a crisis after Title 42 ends.
