19 states ask SCOTUS to keep Title 42 in place or risk border 'crisis of unprecedented proportions'

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : Border Patrol made a record 2.2 million apprehensions along the southern border this past fiscal year.
49% : The policy known as Title 42 started in 2020, under President Donald Trump, in the early weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic and has since been used to expel migrants from the southern border more than 2.4 million times on the basis of public health concerns.
45% : In Monday's application for a stay, the states, which are mostly Republican-led, again argued that lifting Title 42 will create an influx of unauthorized migrants who will unduly burden government services like law enforcement, education and health care.
40% : Due to the rapid nature of the expulsions, which usually take place in a matter of hours, access to asylum and other humanitarian protections is sharply curtailed.
