The Biden administration said on Wednesday it’s appealing a federal judge’s ruling that forbids the government from deporting some illegal immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border without first providing them the option to request asylum under the Title 42 policy.

In a court filing, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said it planned to appeal the November verdict by U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan, an appointee of former President Bill Clinton, that overturned the Title 42 policy.
