Judge's halt of Title 42 repeal gets Biden admin, Dems out of tricky political situation

A judge’s decision Friday to issue a preliminary injunction on attempts by the Biden administration to end the Title 42 public health order may end up getting the Biden administration -- along with moderate Democrats in tough re-election races -- out of a tricky political situation.

He sided with Republican arguments that the order was lifted in violation of the Administrative Procedures Act (APA), and that it would hurt the states by increasing costs related to healthcare, driving licenses and education. He said it would also increase migrant numbers at the border.
