Federal judge prevents Biden from ending ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy

TEXAS (CNN, KYMA/KECY) - A federal judge in Texas is preserving one Trump-era immigration measure, just as another is set to end.

The "Remain in Mexico" policy prevents migrants seeking asylum from waiting in the U.S. during that process.

The U.S. Supreme Court initially ruled President Joe Biden had the authority to get rid of it but sent the case back to the lower court.

The judge ruled against the White House yesterday on a procedural level.

Meanwhile, Title 42 is scheduled to end next Wednesday.

It largely bars asylum-seeking at the southern border, citing public health.

Yesterday, the Biden administration unveiled this six-point plan to prepare for the expected migrant surge.
