"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. Continued into the Biden administration, which ultimately carried out more expulsions than the Trump administration, Title 42’s usage reframed the scope of border enforcement."
