Opinion: Biden Must Stop Using 'Public Health' Excuse To Immediately Expel Migrants
Houston Chronicle
(2022)
Abstract
The Title 42 order is a stain on the Biden administration's promise to revitalize the nation's commitment to advancing human rights. When we circumvent human rights laws and summarily expel people who come to our borders requesting asylum, we erode the very foundation of our country as a haven of freedom and fair laws, and damage our own integrity. The order should be rescinded immediately.
