Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : As long as Title 42 remains intact, our country is violating the fundamental right of people to migrate, seek asylum, and have the chance to seek the American dream.
47% : It was always about finding an excuse to deny migrants the legal right to apply for asylum.
43% : What Democrats and Republicans alike must understand is that whether or not Title 42 is lifted, the crisis at the southern border will persist.
40% : During the two years this edict has been in effect, approximately 1.8 million migrants have been expelled from the U.S. and have been unable to apply for asylum and have the opportunity to escape from the myriad of issues they are fleeing in their home countries.
