"Democrats outraged by Biden's reported offer to reinstate Title 42 expulsions"

Democrats are expressing anger and disappointment over reports that the Biden administration is considering new restrictions on asylum at the border in order to secure a deal on its supplemental funding request. Lawmakers accuse the White House of "selling out" migrants to appease Republicans, calling the proposed changes to the asylum system "callous and inhumane." Talks have been ongoing between lawmakers and the administration, with Republicans demanding more restrictions on asylum and the release of migrants into the U.S. As talks stall, President Biden has indicated openness to "significant compromises." The administration is reportedly considering a new border authority similar to Title 42 and a nationwide expansion of expedited removal. Some Democrats insist on a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants already in the U.S. The situation at the southern border remains overwhelmed, with over 10,000 encounters reported on Tuesday alone.
