Title 42 is coming to an end. What this means for asylum seekers at the southern border

Last week, a federal judge put an end to Title 42, a pandemic-era border restriction that allowed officials to block migrants without allowing them to seek asylum.

The judge gave a five-week grace period to the Biden administration to end the policy, saying it violated the Administrative Procedure Act.

To learn about what Title 42’s end means for those seeking asylum at our southern border, The Show spoke with Joanna Williams, executive director of Kino Border Initiative.
