Title 42 Ends After COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Expires

The Biden administration ends Title 42 expulsions as the federal COVID-19 public health emergency expires. Over 2.8 million expulsions occurred under Title 42 between March 2020 and May 2023. The administration implements a new suite of border enforcement measures including a new asylum processing rule restricting claims. A brief surge in border crossings follows the end of Title 42.
