The Supreme Court’s decision on Title42 received universal condemnation by organizations who work directly with migrants. One advocate said the decision 'will have deadly consequences for people fleeing persecution.'
Immigrant advocates are criticizing the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision this week to temporarily block a lower court order to terminate the controversial pandemic-era health measure that restricts migration at border crossings.
“This has caused horrendous, horrendous harm,” said Lee Gelernt, the ACLU’s lead attorney in a federal case against Title 42 that was filed shortly after Trump enacted it. Meanwhile, the ACLU’s lawsuit continued to work its way through the courts. In November, the judge ruled in the ACLU’s favor and ordered the Biden administration to terminate it by Dec. 21.
Officials from the conservative states have argued that lifting Title 42 would result in a surge in migration. Gelernt said it would be a self-inflicted surge. Melissa Crow, director of litigation at the Center for Gender & Refugee Studies said the decision, “will have deadly consequences for people fleeing persecution."
