"This article provides an overview of the scale, impact, and effectiveness of Title 42, ahead of the one-year anniversary of the order’s lifting in May 2023. While Title 42 was just one of many landmark and wide-ranging immigration restrictions imposed by the Trump administration, the public-health authority was both larger in scale and represented a more emblematic shift away from the United States’ historical openness to people seeking refuge.
