The Biden administration is set to allow Title 42 to expire on the 23rd of May. Title 42 is a health policy that allows the United States to expel migrants to their home country. Critics of the plan say that ending this policy will lead to a surge in illegal border crossings. Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt is one of these critics.
"It's going to be a title wave of illegal immigration," says Schmitt.
The Missouri Attorney General has joined other state Attorneys General in a lawsuit to prevent the Biden Administration from ending Title 42. Schmitt says that this policy accounts for nearly half of the current deportations. You can hear Schmitt discuss his thoughts on the podcast or in the audio above.
