According to this article on VOA News, by Aline Barros

“For more than a year, the Biden administration kept in place at the U.S. southern border a Trump-era policy known as Title 42, which allowed the United States to quickly expel migrants to their country of origin or Mexican border towns.

On April 1, the administration announced the policy would end on May 23, giving U.S. officials time to prepare for what they expect to be an increase in migrant arrivals at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Some Democrats celebrated the end of Title 42, but Republicans want to keep the policy in place.”
