Venezuelan migrants at the southern border

February 3, 2022

Venezuelan migrants who are taken into custody along the U.S.-Mexico border will be sent to Colombia under the Biden administration’s new attempt to address the spike of migrants arriving at the border. Recently, Venezuelan migrants have crossed into the U.S. in record numbers, usually after flying to a Mexican border city, then walking across to surrender to American authorities. DHS stated it would begin returning Venezuelans to Colombia if they had previously resettled in that country, expelling them from the U.S. under Title 42. Authorities are permitted to bypass immigration proceedings without affording asylum seekers a chance to seek protection under U.S. law through the pandemic-era provision of Title 42.
