What to Know About Title 42 and How It May Affect Immigration

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : The proposed rule limiting asylum is almost certain to be the subject of lawsuits.
39% : The same study also found the policy "discriminatorily" targeted Haitians and other Black asylum seekers, noting that the flood of Ukrainian refugees fleeing the Russian invasion have been able to enter through the Southern border while those fleeing violence in Central American and Caribbean countries are blocked.
36% : The U.S. is proposing a rule that would severely limit asylum to migrants who first travel through another country, quickly screening migrants seeking asylum at the border and deporting those deemed not qualified, and a five-year ban on reentry for those deported.
35% : The order gave border patrol agents the right to expel migrants seeking asylum, without giving them an opportunity to explain their persecution case.
27% : A lot of these consequences have been met with harsh criticism by immigrants' rights groups who have gone so far as to compare the policies to Trump's and say the right to apply for asylum on U.S. soil is sacrosanct.
