Biden sending 1,500 troops to US-Mexico border ahead of Title 42 restrictions ending

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : The COVID-19 restrictions allowed U.S. officials to turn away tens of thousands of migrants crossing the southern border, but those restrictions will lift May 11, and border officials are bracing for an expected surge of migrants.
50% : Biden's actions follow similar moves by then-President Donald Trump, who deployed active duty troops to the border to assist border patrol personnel in processing large migrant caravans, on top of National Guard forces that were already working in that capacity.
49% : The troops will not do law enforcement work and will be sent down for roughly 90 days, though their presence can be extended if necessary.
40% : Last week, administration officials announced they would work to swiftly screen migrants seeking asylum at the border, quickly deport those deemed as not being qualified, and penalize people who cross illegally into the U.S. or illegally through another country on their way to the U.S. border.
