President Biden is using a Trump-era rule to curb Venezuelans from entering the US at the southern border.
Title 42 was invoked in 2020 under Trump to send migrants back to Mexico, citing the COVID-19 pandemic.
Biden's Justice Department, however, has been fighting the policy in court.
President Joe Biden is relying on a controversial policy enforced by former President Donald Trump to deport Venezuelan migrants even as his own Justice Department fights that policy in court, The Associated Press reported.
Title 42 is a policy implemented in 2020 under Trump during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and allowed the US to turn away migrants at the US southern border as a way to curb the spread of the virus.
