Title 42: What happens when the Donald Trump era immigration policy is lifted? - BBC News

#US #BBCNews
A controversial Trump-era immigration policy known as Title 42 is set to expire on 11 May, after more than three years.

The policy allows authorities to expel would-be migrants attempting to cross the border using the pandemic as justification, and has long faced criticism from immigration advocates and some Democrats who believed it prevented many asylum seekers from coming into the country.

But with federally-mandated Covid measures ending, officials are bracing for an influx of migrants at the US-Mexico border.
