Biden administration to end Title 42 on May 23: Reports

Published



President Joe Biden’s administration plans to end Title 42, the emergency public health rule that has permitted the United States to turn away migrants because of the pandemic, in May, just before the number of illegal border crossings typically increases in the warmer months.
