The Biden administration announced Friday that it will end a controversial, pandemic-era policy that has effectively sealed off the United States’ borders to asylum seekers for more than two years.
Critics of Title 42 expressed cautious optimism in response to the CDC’s announcement rescinding the policy.
“Rather than wait until May 23, the administration should act quickly to end Title 42 and begin coordinating with local service providers immediately to expand processing capacity without relying on equally inhumane policies like Remain in Mexico, metering, or mass detention,” Babaie said in a statement.“Title 42 has never been about protecting public health, but is instead an illegal and xenophobic attack on migrant rights that the Biden administration is right to end.
