Supreme Court Hears Fight Over Asylum-Seekers Waiting In Mexico

The video discusses two major Trump-era immigration policies: the Migrant Protection Protocol and Title 42. The Supreme Court is reviewing the authority of the Department of Homeland Security to end the Migrant Protection Protocol, which requires certain asylum seekers to stay in Mexico. Texas and Missouri argue against its rollback due to insufficient U.S. detention facilities. Meanwhile, Title 42, a policy allowing quick expulsion of migrants citing COVID-19, is set to end, but a federal court has ruled it must remain for now. The White House states that Title 42 is a CDC decision, not an immigration policy.
