President Joe Biden’s administration on Monday extended a Trump-era border restriction that started during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Title 42 order was issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) last year, enabling government workers to immediately kick out anyone captured crossing the border illegally without a hearing.
