Liberals Have a Meltdown After the Biden Administration Decides to Keep Trump-era Border Policy

The Biden administration will continue authorizing the rapid deportation of illegal immigrants from the U.S.-Mexico border to reduce the transmission of Covid-19 in border facilities, a pandemic-era policy first put in place under President Trump.

The order, known as Title 42, means the illegal immigrants are not granted the opportunity to request asylum in the United States.

Public health officials must evaluate the continued need for the order every 60 days. The latest assessment was due on February 2.

"At this time, it remains in effect," a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention spokesperson told CBS News. "The current reassessment examined the present impact of the pandemic throughout the United States and at the U.S. borders, taking special note of the surge in cases and hospitalizations since December due to the highly transmissible Omicron variant."

The Biden administration's decision to retain the Trump-era expulsions has alarmed human rights groups, public health experts and advocates for asylum-seekers, who are challenging the policy in federal court.

But the Biden administration has vigorously defended the emergency order, telling a federal court earlier this month that its termination would pose a "serious danger" to the public health of U.S. communities.

At this point, the Biden administration has enforced Title 42 for over a year, longer than the Trump administration. It has carried out over 1 million migrant expulsions in 11 months, compared to 400,000 expulsions during Trump's last year in office, according U.S. Customs and Border Protection data. (CBS)
