BREAKING: Supreme Court Blocks Key Immigration Policy Title 42 From Ending
The Supreme Court blocked the Biden administration on Monday from lifting Title 42.
The statute, which gives commanders-in-chief the power to shut down immigration as an emergency action to keep communicable diseases out of the United States, was last used by former President Donald Trump in reaction to the COVID outbreak. Families seeking asylum had filed a lawsuit which led to a federal judge ordering the Biden administration to lift Title 42 by Wednesday.
An order from Chief Justice John Roberts stayed the ruling of the lower court.
“Texas and other states are insisting that the Court leave Title 42 in place. Today’s order is a step in that direction,” Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) said in reaction to the move. “This helps prevent illegal immigration.”
Customs and Border Protection officials had told lawmakers that approximately 50,000 foreigners were waiting to cross into the United States once Title 42 is lifted.
