Migrants in limbo near the shared border between the U.S. and Mexico are wary of an end to Title 42 at the frontier, fearing new measures will further complicate their search for the American dream. Title 42 is set to expire on Thursday.
The policy, implemented in March 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, has allowed U.S. authorities to expel hundreds of thousands of migrants to Mexico without the chance to seek U.S. asylum.
In recent weeks, illegal border crossings have climbed and more migrants are coming in the hopes they will now be allowed to apply for asylum in the United States after Title 42 ends.
But some migrants also fear new measures post Title 42 could include deportation back to their countries.
To discourage illegal crossings, the Biden administration plans to issue a sweeping new regulation this week that would deny asylum to most migrants caught crossing if they passed through Mexico or other countries en route to the U.S. or failed to use other U.S. legal pathways.
