Judge blocks US from using Title 42 to expel migrants

A federal judge issued an order on Tuesday barring federal authorities from using Title 42, a Trump-era rule that allowed the U.S. to quickly expel migrants who crossed the border.
U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan said the policy is "arbitrary and capricious" and violates the Administrative Procedure Act in his ruling on Tuesday.
Title 42 was originally enacted at the outset of the coronavirus pandemic in March 2020, allowing for authorities to quickly expel migrants on public health grounds.
