Since Title 42 expired, hundreds of migrants are still camped out at the border for their chance to apply for asylum and make it into the U.S.Tens of thousands of people are believed to be massed in northern México, but according to the Homeland Security secretary, Title 42's lapse doesn't guarantee that it'll be easier to come into the U.S. unlawfully.With Title 42 gone, Title 8 is back in effect, allowing migrants to seek asylum. Although it can be a lengthy process, many like Diana Rodríguez are willing to stay as long as necessary. She left Colombia 11 days ago for fear of her safety but left her family and her child back home. Rodríguez is one of the hundreds of people who have been arriving daily at the border at a stretch located between two barriers that divide San Diego and Tijuana.Title 8 could also potentially bring more severe consequences to migrants entering the country without a legal basis."There's a lot of talk from the administration confirming that they will be prosecuting anybody who re-enters unlawfully, they will be criminally prosecuting them so we are going to see a big uptick in criminal prosecutions," said immigration attorney, Priscilla Higuera. New measures rolled out by the Biden administration discourages people from migrating and making the journey to the U.S.-México border."The administration is really pushing or really wanting everybody to use the CBP One app and so, thru that app, you download it onto your phone and you schedule an appointment at one of eight ports of entry," added Higuera.Several attorneys pointed out to sister station KCRA that migrants have encountered multiple issues with the CBP One app including the information not being available in many languages, a limited number of appointments, and a problem for those who are not literate.Migrants will also have to prove that they sought asylum from one of the countries to which they were coming through and that they were denied.But as the U.S. government ramps up its efforts, it's unknown if people will stop coming to the border, as many say that they fear for their safety if they stay any longer in their countries.People from Venezuela, Nicaragua, Cuba, and Haiti could potentially receive a humanitarian parola, as long as they have a sponsor living in the country and they are outside of the U.S. when they apply.The Biden Administration is also working on establishing 100 regional centers in several countries to encourage asylum seekers to start their application process from home.
