Arizona Republic To see the destructive force of immigration on the Democratic Party, you need only look at those Democrats with the most to lose in the midterm elections. The party’s candidates in swing states, including Arizona, are warning the Biden administration that Title 42, the temporary rule that allows the United States to rapidly expel migrants during the pandemic, could stand between them and victory in November. If the administration allows Title 42 to expire on May 23 without a Plan B, the surge of humanity northward is likely to create televised chaos. Voters will be upset and punish Democratic candidates, officials in both parties warn. Democrats should be worried about Title 42 In Arizona, the Democrats’ likely nominee for governor, Katie Hobbs, does not hedge her words. Ending Title 42 “without a clear plan to secure our border would be a disaster.” Only weeks earlier she was telling Arizona’s Family “Politics Unplugged” that “Title 42 isn’t working.” What changed her mind? Panic. Even as runaway inflation eats away at Democratic prospects in November, 4 in 10 Americans tell the Gallup poll they have a “great deal” of worry about “illegal immigration.” On the pages of The New York Times, the temple of big city liberalism, Democratic pollster Mark Penn told the faithful to wake up. The American people are unnerved by the erosion of border security, economic security, global security and their own physical security, Penn wrote. “This electorate is not experiencing a malaise … but has instead formed into a deep national fissure ready to blow like a geyser.” “… Without a U-turn by the Biden administration, these fears will generate a wave election like those in 1994 and 2010, setting off a chain reaction that could flip the House and the Senate to Republican control in November, and ultimately the presidency in 2024.” This may be their last chance at reform Ending Title 42 could turn the floodwaters loose on our southern border. Even Joe Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas forewarned that the spring could bring three tiers of migration that could grow as high as 18,000 border-crossers a day. “There is no question if we encounter 18,000 people in a single day that will seriously strain our capabilities. I just need to be clear in that regard,” Mayorkas said. In a last-ditch effort to do something, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators on Thursday began meeting anew to try to resurrect border reforms that had gained initial support from both parties in the past.

Read Now in the e-Edition Pushing border reform in an election year is like swimming in mud, but Democrats know a future Republican Congress with more strident Trump-era conservatives could halt reform for years to come. This may be the last chance for years for Democrats to influence change. It’s not just Democrats who should worry, however. The U.S.-Mexico border has been a mass of dysfunction the last quarter-century through Republican and Democratic administrations. Without reasonable reforms the border will continue to feed that anxiety felt by many Americans that their country is sliding off the cliff. Our border is part of a global migration shift In researching this column, I returned to an author we featured on these pages two years ago. Eric Kaufmann is a Canadian demographer who has been watching from 30,000 feet the global migration of people from the southern hemisphere to what has been the largely white European northern hemisphere. Kaufmann is well placed to write about shifting demography. In fact, he embodies it. He is one-quarter Chinese, one-quarter Latino with a good portion of Eastern European Jew mixed in. Perhaps that is why his 2019 book, “WhiteShift,” is ultimately optimistic about the worldwide merging of peoples. He defines “Whiteshift” as “ethnic majorities in the West” undergoing “transition from an unmixed to a mixed state,” a process he says is now in its early stages and “will take a century to complete.” The crush of people on our southern border is part of global phenomenon as the Eurosphere descends from its baby boom and the nations of Latin America and Africa climb to peak population growth. These inverse movements are powerful catalysts of change. “(In the global North) demand for labor to staff hospitals and manual jobs and pay the taxes needed to meet growing pension bills will exert a powerful migratory pull,” Kaufmann writes. “In the global South, a continuing population boom combined with low wages is generating a corresponding migratory push.” What the right needs to understand None of this happens without combustion. “On one side is a conservative coalition of whites who are attached to their heritage joined by minorities who value the white tradition; on the other side a progressive alliance of minorities who identify with their ethnic identity combined with whites who are agnostic or hostile towards theirs.” These dueling factions have created decades of inertia on immigration reform. Both sides need to reform themselves before we solve our border problems. Let’s begin with the right. You are not going to reverse these population shifts. A wall won’t stop it. As Kauffman explains, “The right to marry a foreign spouse, economic push-pull factors, legal barriers and international obligations make it difficult to reduce immigration below a certain level. At the same time, minorities’ younger age profile will continue to power ethnic change.” Also, this is a big-hearted nation that from its beginning has opened its door to immigrants. You are not a traditionalist if you ignore that American dynamic. Immigration powers and ultimately defines this country. We are not going to break with our past. What the left also can’t ignore For the left, there are limits to immigration. There have to be. Too much immigration too quickly leads to chaos and dysfunction and balkanization. We can’t have open borders. There needs to be controls. Allow too much immigration too quickly and you spur populist movements against it, and not all of those populists will be white. That’s because too much immigration too quickly floods the labor pool and suppresses working class wages. Anni Foster just schooled everyone on how to quit a campaign Andy Biggs had a not-so-little role in the attempted Jan. 6 coup A million-acre feet of water won’t save Lake Powell. But it’s a win Democrats who recoiled at Donald Trump’s constant affronts to people of color were surprised to learn that since 2012, their party had lost 18 points “off of their margin” among nonwhite working class voters. Drawing from that same Pew and Catalist data, Democratic political scientist RuyTeixeira noted, “Hispanic working class voters were particularly likely to shift to the Republicans in 2020. Pew data shows a 30-point shift toward the GOP relative to 2018 … more than twice the 14-point shift among college Hispanics.” Whoever fixes this will reap rewards Recent polls have shown that Americans by more than two-thirds believe their country is headed in the wrong direction. One of the surest symptoms is our broken border. We need a border that promotes and accommodates legal immigration, that is sensitive to shifts in the labor markets, that is open for robust trade with Latin America and closed to drugs running north and guns running south. That border should respect the privilege that comes with American citizenship and is respectful to our Mexican neighbors. The party that can make that happen will be the party that gets us headed back in the right direction.
