Title 42 to end in May: What it means for immigration at the southern border | LiveNOW from FOX
Title 42 will come to an end on May 11. It was implemented amid the COVID-19 pandemic and prevented migrants from requesting asylum, allowing border agents to return many of them swiftly back to Mexico. Migrants have been expelled from the U.S. nearly 2.8 million times under Title 42 since March 2020. When Title 42 orders are lifted May 11, immigration agents will return to processing people under the long-standing authority of Title 8. Deportations under Title 8 carry stiffer consequences, including potential criminal prosecution and a ban on reentry for at least five years. Dana Lind, from the American Immigration Council, spoke with LiveNOW's Andrew Craft about the ending of Title 42 and how it will impact immigration at the southern border.
