Court Temporarily Blocks Ending Of Title 42: REPORT
Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt announced Monday that the request for a pause on Title 42 was granted in court Monday.
The lawsuit, which was first brought about by Arizona, Missouri and Louisiana, challenged the Biden administration over its decision to end the pandemic public health order responsible for the expulsions of over 1.8 million migrants since it began in March 2020.
A written decision on the matter had not been released at the time of publication, however.
