A federal judge has given the Biden administration a five-week transition period to end the Trump-era Title 42 policy, which has expelled over two million migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border without due process since 2020.
Washington, November 18 (RHC)-- In the United States, a federal judge has given the Biden administration a five-week transition period to end the Trump-era Title 42 policy, which has expelled over two million migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border without due process since 2020.
Judge Emmet Sullivan had blocked the policy on Tuesday, calling it “arbitrary and capricious,” but agreed on Wednesday to give the Biden administration until December 21 to end the program.
In other news, a U.S. Senate investigation has confirmed immigrants who were held at the Irwin County Detention Center in Georgia endured excessive and unnecessary gynecological procedures — largely without their consent — and said Immigration and Customs Enforcement ignored the abuses for years. The investigation was in response to dozens of disturbing reports from women detained at Irwin who were subjected to hysterectomies by Dr. Mahendra Amin, a local doctor known as “the uterus collector,” from 2017 to 2020.
