Judge blocks Biden administration from lifting public health order used to quickly expel migrants

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : Since Title 42 removals began, the percentage of migrants apprehended more than once by the Border Patrol -- called the recidivism rate -- has increased from 7% to 27%.
47% :The administration had announced that it would stop expelling migrants under Title 42 starting May 23 and go back to detaining and deporting migrants who don't qualify to enter and remain in the U.S. -- a longer process that allows migrants to request asylum in the U.S.That led more than 20 Republican-controlled states, led by Arizona, to sue the administration in Summerhays' court on April 3, claiming that lifting the Title 42 order would create chaos at the U.S.-Mexico border and force the states to spend taxpayer money providing services like health care to migrants.
38% : The Trump administration invoked Title 42 in March 2020, effectively closing the borders to migrants, including those seeking asylum, if they didn't already have legal permission to enter.
23% : Summerhays said in his ruling that the Biden administration violated administrative procedure laws and that lifting Title 42 would cause "irreparable harm" because the states would have to spend money on health care, law enforcement, education and other services for migrants.
