Towns near the U.S.-Mexico border are preparing for what could be a record number of border crossers, but it's doubtful North Carolina will see a big change.

<p>&gt;&gt; ERIC MILLER LIVE IN GARNER. THANK YOU, ERIC. &gt;&gt; WE'RE JUST ABOUT 7 HOURS AWAY FROM THE END OF THE TRUMP ERA RULE THAT THE SOUTHERN BORDER TITLE, 42 MADE IT EASIER TO EXPEL MIGRANTS WHO CROSS THE BORDER INTO THIS COUNTRY. NOW NEARBY TOWNS ON THIS SIDE OF THE BORDER ARE BRACING FOR WHAT COULD BE AN INFLUX OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE SHOW JACKSON IS LIVE IN DOWNTOWN RALEIGH TO EXPLAIN WHAT THE LIFTING OF TITLE 42 IS GOING TO MEAN. NOT ONLY FOR THE MIGRANTS, BUT FOR THIS AREA SHOWING. &gt;&gt; WELL, JERROLD TITLE, 42 IS A PUBLIC HEALTH MEASURE. IT WAS ENACTED DURING THE PANDEMIC N, AS YOU SAID, IT ALLOWED FOR THE IMMEDIATE EXPULSION OF MIGRANTS. IT VIRTUALLY HALTED PROCESSING OF ASYLUM CLAIMS FOR MORE THAN 3 YEARS. AND WHILE THESE BORDER TOWNS ARE PREPARING FOR A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE, IT'S DOUBTFUL. WE'LL SEE THOSE SAME NUMBERS HERE IN NORTH CAROLINA. &gt;&gt; FROM TEXAS TO CALIFORNIA. IMMIGRANTS ARE GATHERING AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER WAITING FOR MIDNIGHT AND THE CHANCE TO CLAIM ASYLUM IN THE UNITED STATES HAS BEEN 3 YEARS THE BORDER HAS ESSENTIALLY BEEN CLOSED, TOO. &gt;&gt; AND THE TYPE OF IMMIGRATION TITLE. 42 WAS ORIGINALLY A PUBLIC HEALTH WALL IS A PUBLIC HEALTH. &gt;&gt; POLICY AND A PUBLIC HEALTH MECHANISM THAT WAS USED FOR IMMIGRATION PURPOSES JOE MCGINNISS QAIDA IS A POLICY ANALYST WITH THE U.S. COMMITTEE FOR REFUGEES AND IMMIGRANTS. &gt;&gt; I ANTICIPATE THAT THE. &gt;&gt; THE HIGH NUMBERS, WE'LL KIND OF GO BACK TO NORMAL NUMBERS IN THE UPCOMING WEEKS. THE LIFTING OF TITLE 42 DOESN'T MEAN THE BORDER IS OPEN JUST THAT PEOPLE CAN ONCE AGAIN APPLY FOR ASYLUM. ASHLEY CLINICIANS KEY WORKS WITH REFUGEES AT WELCOME HOUSE RALEIGH. &gt;&gt; THE LONG BEFORE TITLE, 42 IS TITLED 8 WOODS SAID THAT ASYLUM SEEKERS COULD COME TO THE COUNTRY AND THEY CAN BE PROCESSED UNDER OUR SILENT MALLS. ARE LAWS REQUIRE THAT TO APPLY FOR ASYLUM? YOU MUST BE PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES, BUT THE END OF TITLE. 42 ALSO MEANS A NEW RULE FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. THAT COULD DISQUALIFY SOME FROM CLAIMING ASYLUM IN THE UNITED STATES SAID THEY ALLOWED IN TO A DHS &gt;&gt; APPROVED PROCESS. &gt;&gt; IF THEY MET THE SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE BP ONE APP. AND IF THEY TIED FOR ASYLUM AND WERE DENIED IT THIS TIME, IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE NORTH CAROLINA WILL SEE AN INFLUX OF ASYLUM SEEKERS. A LARGE NUMBER OF MIGRANTS AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER ARE VENEZUELANS, ACCORDING TO THE U.S. CRI PEOPLE USUALLY TRAVEL TO WHERE THEY ALREADY HAVE FRIENDS OR FAMILY. &gt;&gt; AND NORTH CAROLINA DOESN'T HAVE A LARGE A VENEZUELAN IMMIGRANT POPULATION. &gt;&gt; SO I DON'T ANTICIPATE ANY INCREASES OR LARGE INCREASES IN AND IMMIGRANTS ARE ASYLUM SEEKERS COMING TO NORTH CAROLINA. &gt;&gt; AND SO THERE ARE SOME EXCEPTIONS TO THAT NEW RULE, DEPENDING ON NATIONALITY AND CIRCUMSTANCES AND AGAIN TONIGHT AT 11, 59 EASTERN TIME IS WHEN TITLE 42 WILL BE LIFTED.</p>

NC not expected to see influx of migrants with Title 42 ending

Some Texas Border Cities Are Already Under a State of Emergency

now to the other weekend tragedy in Texas: An SUV plowed into a group of people, outside a migrant shelter in Brownsville -- killing eight people and injuring several others. It happened just days ahead of the lifting of Title 42, a Covid border restriction that's expected to lead to another surge of migrants.

This surveillance video shows the seconds right before an SUV plowed into a crowd waiting at a bus stop Sunday outside a migrant shelter in Brownsville, Texas. The mayor says eight people were killed. Some of them migrants from Venezuela at least nine others were injured this morning. Investigators are still trying to determine a motive. One, it could be intoxication two. It could be just an accidental one or three. It could be intention a bystander telling NBC news that he heard from other witnesses that the driver yelled anti immigrant language but police say they can't substantiate the allegation and it's still under investigation. Law enforcement officials tell NBC news. The driver is a Hispanic male who is not cooperating with investigators. He's been arrested and charged with reckless driving but more charges could be pending just a terrible situation to to witness such a tragic loss of so many lives. The migrant deaths come just days after Homeland Security Secretary, Alejandro, mayors visited Brownsville touting a new processing center ahead of the lifting this week of the COVID border restriction known as title 42. The policy change is expected to bring yet another migrant influx to the southern border as many as 10,000 people a day. The situation at the border is a very serious. One last week, we visited Juarez, Mexico where thousands of migrants have already gathered. What's been the hardest part? The hardest part is never having work, food or water. This man from Guatemala told us saying he planned to cross the border with his two year old son. The Biden administration is preparing for the end of title 42 by sending 1500 active duty troops to the border and setting up asylum processing centers in Guatemala and Colombia. But the president telling msnbc's Stephanie rule that Congress needs to act, there has to be a legal pathway to citizen.
