Context
The U.S. is attempting to crack down on an influx of illegal crossings along its southern border.
As per The New York Times:
Title 42, a pandemic-era immigration policy, had been used for more than three years to quickly expel migrants who have tried to cross the border illegally, on the grounds of public health. It was enacted by former President Donald J. Trump in March 2020 and expanded under the Biden administration.
