"Sen. Lindsey Graham Declares 'America is Full,' Urges Biden to Halt Migrant Influx on 'Face the Nation'"

Senator Lindsey Graham has declared "America is full" in response to the ongoing migrant surge at the U.S. southern border, urging President Biden to take action to stem the flow. Graham suggests that the U.S. should deport individuals awaiting asylum hearings and has linked further Ukraine aid to immigration system reforms. He supports the reinstatement of Title 42 for immediate deportations and hints at mass deportations under a potential future Trump presidency. Meanwhile, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed a law allowing state law enforcement to arrest, detain, and deport migrants, a move that has been challenged by the Biden administration.

Sen. Lindsey Graham Discusses Immigration, Ukraine Aid, and Trump on "Face the Nation"

On "Face the Nation," Sen. Lindsey Graham discussed the need for immigration policy changes, emphasizing the use of Title 42 authority to address the border crisis by expelling migrants without asylum hearings, claiming America is "full."

Sinema and Tillis propose two-year border solution as Trump policy ends.

Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Thom Tillis are proposing a temporary two-year authority to expel migrants from the United States similar to what is currently allowed under Title 42, a law that permits the U.S. to deny asylum and migration claims for public health reasons. The legislation would provide protections for migrants whose return to their home countries would threaten their life, freedom, or expose them to torture. The legislation would need at least 60 votes to pass the Senate, making it all but guaranteed that it won’t pass before Title 42’s expiration.
