The White House has insisted that the end of Title 42 does not mean that the US border will suddenly be open to all – and that there are existing processes in place to process the claims of asylum-seekers. The looming end of Title 42 has been a source of heightened concern, particularly as numbers of migrants attempting to cross the border increased in the days ahead of the order’s expiration. The administration has also identified cities within the United States to move migrants for processing – an idea that’s long been considered among officials – but no decision has been made yet. In a document outlining border security preparedness, DHS broke down its six-pillar plan, which was released in the spring and has since been updated. Large numbers of migrants have already arrived at the Mexico side of the border awaiting Title 42’s expiration. The proposal is being finalized and is expected to be announced this week prior to the lifting of Title 42. Administration officials have said many of them are being exploited by smugglers offering false promises related to the end of Title 42, and officials are doubtful those practices would be altered by new rules. The new rules are likely to generate outcry and legal challenges from immigration advocates, who have pushed for an end to Title 42. The lifting of the authority means a return to traditional protocols at a time of mass migration in the Western Hemisphere, stressing already-overwhelmed resources. Officials have been weighing policies to try to stem the flow of migrants heading to the US southern border. In a brief order, signaling that the court wants to act quickly, Roberts asked the Biden administration to respond by 5 p.m. The White House has said the administration is bound by a court order.

The filing notes that homeland security officials are seeking more than $3 billion in emergency funding to handle the anticipated influx and that there has been a surge of migrants approaching the border in the lead up to Wednesday. But a federal official speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal figures said last week that officials are estimating that the daily influx would range from 9,000 to 14,000. “No one reasonably disputes that the failure to grant a stay will cause a crisis of unprecedented proportions at the border,” the filing says. “The States are transparently and dangerously seeking to use a public health measure for border management,” he said. Even with Title 42 in place, the U.S. He was acting on a request from immigration advocates, who said there was no evidence that Title 42 protected public health and that it placed migrants — who otherwise would be able to seek protection in the United States — in extreme danger. “The inordinate and unexplained untimeliness of the States’ motion to intervene on appeal weighs decisively against intervention,” said the unsigned order from a panel that included judges nominated by presidents of both parties. “It is undisputed that the impact on migrants was indeed dire.” Formal deportation hearings, in contrast, can take months or years in backlogged immigration courts, and once immigrants are in the country, it can be difficult for authorities to find and remove them. on Monday temporarily left in place a pandemic-era policy that allows the government to quickly expel millions of migrants from U.S. The call for responses typically means that the full court will be involved in deciding the matter.

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts on Monday put a temporary hold on the termination of a controversial Trump-era immigration policy known as Title 42 ...
In the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a public health order that officials said aimed to stop the spread of Covid-19. In court papers, their lawyers at the American Civil Liberties Union argue that Covid-19 was always a thinly veiled pretense to increase immigration control. “While this stage of the litigation proceeds, we will continue our preparations to manage the border in a safe, orderly, and humane way when the Title 42 public health order lifts.” That order triggered the emergency application at the high court, which was addressed to Roberts, who oversees the DC-based appellate appeals court that ruled in the case. Already, federal officials and border communities have been bracing for an expected increase in migrant arrivals as early as this week, as the issue of immigration continues to ignite both sides of the political divide. The brief order from Roberts means the policy that allows officials to swiftly expel migrants at the US border will stay in effect at least until the justices decide the emergency application.

The funding also would increase support for border cities like El Paso. Prior to Roberts’ action, the White House went on defense Monday, projecting readiness as both Democrats and Republicans warned the U.S. Roberts asked the Department of Justice to file a response with the high court by Tuesday evening.

More broadly, the states accused the Biden administration of using “collusive, underhanded litigation tactics” to achieve its goal of revoking the policy without complying with federal procedural laws. It began as a challenge to the policy in federal court in Washington, D.C., by six families who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border without authorization and now seek asylum – on their own behalf but also as a class action on behalf of other families in the same position.
