Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts on Monday put a temporary hold on the termination of a controversial Trump-era immigration policy known as Title 42 that was set to end on December 21, leaving it in place for now.
But in a brief order Roberts signaled that the court wants to act quickly and asked the Biden administration to respond by 5 p.m. ET Tuesday to an emergency appeal filed by a group of Republican-led states.
The brief order from Roberts means the policy that allows officials to swiftly expel migrants at the US border will stay in effect at least until the justices decide the emergency application. The order does not necessarily reflect the final outcome of the case.
The states had raced to the Supreme Court earlier in the day in an emergency bid to keep in place a Trump-era immigration policy that is set to go off the books Wednesday. #Immigration #jessicaschneider #CNN
Chief Justice Roberts temporarily freezes end of Title 42 immigration policy
It’s on the Federal Government to ENFORCE our borders.
@Pat Doyle No they are not. Get a clue.
@new guy Nice try but we no longer need for the use to be an emergency as they are now fully approved
The Democrats have been trying to improve border security. Biden doubbled the number of border security agents and is trying to get more help at the border. It is legal to come into the country and file for asylum by international law and the constitution. So either way, it is legal. You also have to take into account that some have the luxury of waiting in their own country while others are under threat of death which is why they take the risk of a dangerous journey to get here. There is going to be a huge surge because of all those that have been waiting for title 42 to be lifted. All along children and families with children have been allowed to be processed and given court dates and stay. The GOP has killed several attempts of improving border security . Even their own bills because it makes a good issue to campaign on. The Biden administration is working on getting money and help to the border communities involved. .
@Bobby Clay You just described why we need more immigration Judges to sort out who is making a legitimate claim and who isn’t.
@OldManGhost Wow, none of what you said has even an ounce of truth to it, try again.
This shouldn’t be a political left vs right issue. Borders must be secure, that’s it, no ifs or buts. If you want a country, this must be observed. Matters of immigration are to be handled by the embassies.
You don’t seem to understand this little thing called THE LAW
Title 42 was an emergency declaration based on the pandemic.
Are we still in a health emergency or not?
If not, it has to be revoked and we go back to enforcing the law as written. It’s simple. Your feelings about “others” has fackall to do with it
The surgeon general is the only one that can decide to invoke title 42. He can also end it. The law puts that in his hands. No one else. Unless Congress repeals the law, then the surgeon general is in charge of title 42 no matter what the Supreme Court says.
Liberals DON’T want borders. They have this grand vision of one world with no countries where everybody sings and dances with puppies and rainbows.
The U.S. cannot afford to take in all of Central and South America.
@E C exactly. He’s just laundering his money
@James Powers Hell yeah.
@James Powers How much was sent to Ukraine as well? We can’t afford either of these. Yet 4 billion was too much for a border wall.
@D1Nonly1 4ever thats why we deport all who enter illegally. That will stop them from coming. Then we don’t have to be cruel. Its cruel to let them think its ok to just walk over here.
@FloRider LLC “then we don’t have to be cruel.”
You need help.
Immigrants get deported all the time.
If only Republicans would come to the table to make changes to policy.
But as long as they can use the fear mongering every single year no matter who is president. They’ll never come up with a solution because it won’t benefit them.
All the end of Title 42 means is that they revert back to Title 8 which is what they operated under pre pandemic while Trump was president.
They need to piss into the wind and karen about something. That’s all they have left in their lives.
You forget that under Trump we had remain in Mexico. This regime without title 42 has no tool to make people wait abroad while their bogus asylum claims are denied, so its just catch and release aka open borders which is the whole reason they keep coming.
@FloRider LLC Okay Florida boy, like you’d know.
@Tammy Rogers do you even know what Title 42 is?
@FloRider LLC there are multiple tools to do exactly that if the situation calls for it.
We should be taking care of our own homeless first and they can get in line like everybody else and wait their turn!!!! Us taxpayers who are already struggling should not have this unnecessary additional burden put upon us because it’s the right thing to do and some people’s minds
@R Brown you will always be a loser idiot. immigrants are smarter than you lowlife.
@R Brown time for you to swim in the Rio grande.
@P Le then why can’t they clean up their own country instead of coming to America answer me that one Pedro🤣
@P Le I’m from Texas I’ve actually been in the Rio Grande River throwing Mexicans back across the border🤣
@James A Hendrick School of Leadership they can sleep in your bed.
It is a victory for US!
Make America safe by securing the Border. After that, allow these people to enter the United States the legal way.
This isn’t a victory. It’s what logically needs to be done
@Deborah Freedman
Yes, they should be allowed to stay until we determine whether they qualify – how hard is that for you to grasp? Your second point is well… stupid. For sane people like me, the anti-Jewish sentiment that kept so many from being able to seek asylum here is a shameful page in our history – just as this is. BTW, when most were trying to get out, there was no holocaust – but they knew they were likely to be in serious danger if they stayed. We should have let them stay, and found out if they had good reason for their fears, shouldn’t we?
If your story is true, your family was not treated well by us, and you are rightfully angry about that. Their mistreatment is a big part of why our laws for refugees and asylum seekers were changed – so we will not make the same mistake again.
Sorry about your selfish, resentful attitude, only a long, honest look in the mirror can help with that. But your assumption that these people have nothing to offer shows your bigotry. My family experienced that in the past. When my great, great grandfather came here, he had no education – he was a sharecropper for some British lord in Ireland. They fled the potato famine. He and his family worked long hours for meager wages that often left them hungry, putting food on America’s tables. His son (my great grandfather) became a decorated Major in the US Army, and his son, my grandfather became a District Attorney in Chicago.
My father was a career Naval officer, My older brother a career Army officer, and my other brother is now running a tech start up that may (probably will) produce one of the most revolutionary devices ever to save stroke victims. I have done some good too, including 8 years of military service, but they did better than me, I think.
But all that came from letting in an unschooled man and his family fleeing starvation.
@Locke42485
Yes, we did, blockhead.
@Pat Doyle you are a perfect example of how the education system failed the system. I am a veteran and been around along time and I have this to tell you that don’t let anybody tell you different but your a idiot.
@Pat Doyle what did you just say it was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. you said that we had completely open borders no we did not we had border patrol and you had to ID yourself before you came into the United States the United States never had completely open borders.
@Pat Doyle Way to just make stuff up. That never happened. We have always had hard limits on how many people we would let in.
Good to know someone in that town is doing their job.
It hasn’t stopped them from flooding texas!!
Amen
Mind Begs the Question:
If Jews fled Nazi Germany,Oppression
Deemed illegal Migrants
Thrown in Concentration Camps
Same as Nazis,No?
Title 42 was instituted by Trump. Biden is too stupid.
AMEN! At this time that’s all I can say. 🙏🏻
I agree with this. It’s crazy to allow people to overrun our border. Must have a plan.
This is their plan. Bring in democrat voters with republican’s tax money. People in need, vote democrat
Mind Begs the Question:
If Jews fled Nazi Germany,Oppression
Deemed illegal Migrants
Thrown in Concentration Camps
Same as Nazis,No?
Thank God for Trump instituting title 42!!! Biden is too dumb. Can’t believe anyone was stupid enough to vote for this lunacy!!!
That’s why people vote for Trump, because of democrats pushing for policies like this
Do you even know what Title 42 states?
He said, “irregardless” 🤦🏼♂️ 😂🤪
it’s a double negative, so it’s regardless. MARTIN: And Ray is urging the use of an alternative. RAY: You say regardless – regardless of the fact. Irregardless means not regardless. Irrespective maybe.
Thank goodness Title 42 will NOT end on Wednesday, December 21! Our borders should be closed and migrants should legally apply for asylum in Mexico.
Newsom in California even said we can’t cut Title 42 that was unbelievable.
*Commie* democrats won’t need those votes until 2024.
Until Covid is eliminated completely throughout the world it should be in place as well as Remain in Mexico.
Why unbelievable? They can’t hide from the truth if they can’t hide truth. The book is open, and anybody can read it now.
This is insane. How can they just allow them to walk in like that? What’s the point off having a border?
@CCR it’s not the same as people inviting themselves to your house. That’s insane.
@CCR That’s a false equivalency. A point of entry we are focused on is an official border crossing. The U.S. is not full! I don’t know where you live, but I live in an immigrant city. Over 100 different languages spoken in a city of 150K. Cultural exchange is what makes America different then most of countries. It is against my religion to turn away anyone in need. I think people are losing their humanity because they don’t have compassion. Its selfish to turn people away or allow children to starve. No one cares about the Northern border. Wonder why?
@Silk City Socialist the volume of people crossing illegally from Mexico is 100 000 times bigger that from Canada, that’s why. Canada is a developed country, most people don’t try to illegally immigrate to US from there. It’s nice of you that you are trying to help others, but by supporting people who are skipping the line, where other people are waiting to receive work visa thru the right way thru the embassy in their country to come here legally is not the way to go. That’s just my opinion. Good luck 🍀
@CCR Our system is fundamentally broken and has not been addressed. It’s a contentious issue. The immigration system needs a major overhaul. IMO walls aren’t the answer. People still are coming. Question, If you were in a country like Haiti and you can’t protect or feed your family what would you do?
if you were aware, you’d know that the Fascist party want this chaos. The Democrats do want border security and comprehensive immigration laws but always get blocked by the Con’s. Facts Matter !!
Sad that the Supreme Court has to save the United States sovereignty and security from the current sitting president’s actions.
10 % for the big guy
Amazing that the former news outlets and Democrats frame this unprecedented diaspora as a political game instead of a bipartisan tragedy.
I love how apparently covid only exists when its a convenient excuse to keep out them darn aliens.
@Locke42485 what’s funny is I think that COVID was a very good reason to close our borders. Literally every country was doing this in some way. I’m not disagreeing with the idea here lmao. I’m just pointing out that this COVID based policy is being pushed by the same right leaning people who wanted to brush off COVID.
@Chiliarch No, it’s not. We want a secure border, but the only way we can get it apparently is playing the left’s stupid game, because the left has it rigged on all sides. The media decides what stories to cover and how to cover them, and surprise, the media is hugely biased in favor of the left.
@Locke42485 Ah yes we will go against our own values for a bit if it furthers our own agenda. Sounds like hypocrisy to me but sure bro. And I’m sorry but it isn’t anyone’s fault that the right’s policies aren’t popular. I don’t see how general bigotry could or even should ever be popular to begin with. Not to mention the right has the same pandering news media sink-holes that the left does.
@Chiliarch Way to prove my point about gross bias in media coverage.
@Locke42485 I dont remember claiming there wasn’t any lmao
I support title 42.
During all of this, Congress will not even attempt to pass a law to improve the situation.
That’s because Democrats control all three facets of government currently until January.
