White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki seemed to suggest on April 20 that the president isn’t making any plans to delay the lifting of Title 42—the public health policy that limits immigration and is set to end next month.

Title 42 is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) order that was invoked in March 2020 under then-President Donald Trump to minimize the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus by ensuring that only essential travel occurred at U.S. borders. It has been used for the past two years to quickly expel illegal immigrants at the southern U.S. border.
