Report: Biden to Scrap Trump-era Title 42 Health Order

Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas is greeted by U.S. Border Patrol RGV Chief Brian S. Hastings as they prepare to lead a delegation of Congressional representatives on a tour of U.S. Customs and Border Protection Donna Processing Facility in Donna, Texas, May 7, 2021.

The Biden administration is reportedly getting closer to rolling back the Trump-era Title 42 health order which allows for the quick expulsion of migrants from the border. The Biden administration has been facing pressure from Democrats since the start of Biden’s term to rescind the order but has been met by a series of legal setbacks.

However, because of its public health basis, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Wollensky technically has the sole authority to end or continue Title 42.

The Hill reports:

While crafted by the Trump administration just days into the pandemic, Title 42 has been used more than 2 million times by the Biden administration, meaning the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has expelled foreign nationals more than 2 million times under the guise of pandemic-related health restrictions.

Administration officials have adopted a two-pronged strategy to counter pressure from the left to rescind Title 42: They have insisted the authority to end the policy rests solely on Wollensy’s shoulders, and warned that lifting the policy would spark a surge of migrants at the border.

“We have every expectation that when the CDC ultimately decides it’s appropriate to lift title 42, there will be an influx of people to the border,” White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield told reporters Wednesday.

The planned withdrawal of Title 42 comes after a conflicting set of court decisions on the policy, one directing the administration to expand the policy by applying it to children traveling alone, while a separate court decision imposed new limits, prohibiting sending families subjected to Title 42 to places where they may face torture or persecution.

The administration is reportedly reviewing plans to end the policy as soon as May 23rd.

According to The Hill, a draft order to end Title 42 is circulating in the federal government, but it has yet to get sign-off from all cabinet departments and the White House



  1. Does anyone really believe, that the Biden administration has been following to the letter this law? They keep saying that Title 42 is being enforced, but how do we know that is the truth? Biden has gone against everything we believe in as Americans, he is senile and not really in charge. He is unable to even follow a teleprompter. He adlibs or just crazy ideas come spewing out of his mouth. The Socialist/Democrats will do anything to allow illegals into the country and become voters. Notice who they are keeping out? Cubans, Ukrainians, even Russians who do not believe in socialism and want to live in a free country. They want people to feel indebted to them and garner their votes.

  2. Historically in our past all immigrants were medically examined, and those who were not proven healthy were sent back to whence they came, which is actually what Trump’s Title 42 does, exactly what the USA’s policies were with people coming into the USA.

    The problem here is the same old problem with all Democrats, they don’t want to enforce our laws if those laws are in opposition to the Democrats’ illegal policies and illegal agendas, and that is why we have illegal immigration at our southern borders.

    The Democrat Party is and always has been a lawless political party, hence all the “Voter Fraud” the American people suffer from, as the American people’s choices of who they want to run our governments were and are stolen from the American people by the Democrats.

  3. amazing how concerned this administration is in fighting to protect borders in other countries, yet not ours with illegals on human and drug trafficking, gangs not to mention unknown health problems and NO mandates for them destroying our country from within

  4. If it’s bad for the country, Biden will be all in on it. That’s why we need the house, and the senate in November, so we can make this pile of vile shit go away.
