**Congress, Biden Administration Must Prioritize Better Border
Policies **

**WASHINGTON, D.C.** - Reports today suggest that the Biden
administration is

planning

in May to end the controversial public health policy that allows
officials to turn away migrants at the border. 

Initially implemented by the Trump administration in March 2020, Title
42 has since proved extremely dangerous

for migrants, failed to impose order at the border, and benefited
smugglers and cartels. Experts agree

that any public health rationale for the policy has long since faded. 

The potential wind-down appears to coincide with the timeline for a new
asylum rule

the administration announced last week. Today the Department of Homeland
Security released a fact sheet

on its preparations for potential increases in migration, including the
new rule. 

"We can - and must - do better than Title 42 at the border," said

**Ali Noorani, President and CEO of the National Immigration Forum**. "I
am glad the Biden administration is working to put the pieces in place
so that it can process migrants in a humane, orderly fashion as it winds
down Title 42. 

"In addition to a clear plan from the administration, a safe and
efficient border approach requires action from Congress. Regardless of
administration policy, we can expect to see sharp seasonal increases in
migration - and their subsequent exploitation by cartels - until we
pass meaningful reforms.  

"Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle should seize this opportunity to
advance permanent solutions that modernize our border policies and
address the root causes of Central American migration."
