The dispute over ending the public health law, which gives border authorities the power to swiftly expel some migrants, has gone all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Because U.S. border officials have relied on Title 42 for nearly three years, its end will pose major humanitarian and operational challenges for the government, and likely fuel a spike in migrant arrivals, at least in the short term.

Nineteen Republican-led states asked several courts to delay Title 42's rescission indefinitely, warning that chaos would ensue otherwise. After their request was denied by lower courts, the states asked the Supreme Court to intervene. The 19 Republican-led states that convinced the Supreme Court to delay Title 42's end have mainly relied on the argument that lifting it will fuel an even greater increase in migrant arrivals. But the law underpinning Title 42 does not authorize expulsions on the basis of reducing or deterring illegal migration.For nearly three years, Title 42 has been the primary border-control tool the U.S. government has relied on during an unprecedented migration crisis.

This means that most migrants who are not from Mexico or Central America's Northern Triangle do not face expulsion under Title 42, and are instead processed under U.S. immigration law, which allows them to request asylum. Oftentimes, they are released with a court notice or instructions to check in with federal immigration officials in their respective U.S. destinations.

While migration from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador dropped in the past year, the U.S. has processed record numbers of Cubans, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans, Colombians, Ecuadoreans, Peruvians, Russians and other nationalities. In November, U.S. border officials processed more Nicaraguans than migrants from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador combined, an unprecedented demographic shift.

Expel ALL Illegals crossing the border.

Whether we have the law or not doesn’t matter. This administration will do nothing to stop people from coming across the border illegally. They just let them cross and release them into the interior hemorrhaging our system.

Millions crossing illegally and the media is complicit with democrats purposeful ignorance

Using 'the border issue' as nothing more than a way to divide&divvy up voters for selfish self-interested political ambition 'IS' the problem with our immigration system. What's necessary is a simple bill with the appropriate vision to solve this issue sensibly & compassionately.

They call it illegal immigration for a reason.

Needs to stay in place

It's the same problem we always see where I live. Corrupt pockets of family-owned bureaucracy getting to pick and choose arbitrarily who they serve protect, and who they bestow their blessings and success to. If you don't have some special tie youre left out and forced to beg.
