BREAKING: A pandemic-era policy that allowed border officials to turn away millions of migrants for the last three years has officially expired.
Put in place in March 2020 under the Trump administration, Title 42 blocked migrants from crossing the United States-Mexico border to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Border officials used that authority to deny migrants from crossing more than 2.8 million times.
Without the authority in place, border towns braced for chaos on Friday and anticipated migrants that had been camping out in Mexico to rush toward the U.S. Texas activated a new Tactical Border Force, President Joe Biden sent 1,500 active-duty troops to the border, and cities such as El Paso and Brownsville declared an emergency.
