WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed Title 42 — a Trump-era immigration policy implemented when the pandemic broke out to quickly expel asylum-seekers at the border — to remain in effect for now, putting a judge’s ruling that would have ended it last week on hold.
The court voted 5-4 to grant an emergency request by 19 Republican state attorneys general who sought to intervene in defense of the policy. The decision puts on hold a ruling by Washington-based U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, who said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s implementation of the policy was “arbitrary and capricious.” Sullivan’s ruling was due to go into effect Dec. 21.
Conservative Justice Neil Gorsuch joined the three liberals on the court in voting against the stay request. The brief court order said that while the administration cannot set aside the Title 42 policy, the decision "does not prevent the federal government from taking any action with respect to that policy."
The Supreme Court also agreed to hear oral arguments in February and rule on whether the states can intervene, with a decision due by the end of June.
The court's intervention averts what many had predicted would be an additional surge of people seeking to enter the United States at a time when border crossings are already high. Without the policy in place, people seeking asylum would be able to enter the U.S., where they could be waiting for years for a court date if they pass their initial interview with authorities.

Until they deport the 6 million that made it here it’s a useless deal.
Someone ask the other day how it’s possible thousands can walk over a thousand miles and all show at the border with cell phones and overweight.
The assets simply aren't there to do that and the administration shows no inclination to put them there.
Illegals get jobs with fake SS cards. Employers deduct and pay SS tax and issue the illegals a W-2. Uncle Sam gets the copy of the W-2 and looks the other way as long as the employer isn’t paying them cash.
Emmett Sullivan is the dirt bag who terrorized Gen. Michael Flynn. I guess under the direct guidance of ‘wingman’ Eric Holder.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott is one of the biggest thorns in Biden’s campaign for reelection. Biden, Garland or the Dems can’t stop Abbott from transporting “migrants” to Dem leaning states. As long as Abbott continues his strategy, Biden won’t win.
It isn’t even that complicated, IMO.
They will simply ignore the law, as they have been doing since Trump left office. Nobody calls them on it. Nobody stops them.
So they are going to continue breaking the law and getting away with it.
Rare good news.
Exactly and the ruling states as much
Take the win. Do not celebrate but for praising God, stay focused on the goals...
'Nuff said.
It is maddening. Maddening.
I knew he leaned lib during confirmation hearings when someone reported his preacher is a woman.
how many get bused out?
1%? 2%?
he’s not moving enough out.
To the globalists unending frustration.
The U.S. is not being murdered fast enough, dammit!
The Feds can’t have it both ways. Can’t keep pushing the EMERGENCY USE ONLY vax (which doesn’t work) by saying we are in a pandemic/endemic while also opening the border.
FOR NOW...
5-4 - Oral arguments in February, maybe a decision in late spring..
(hasn’t stopped a lot of them coming through yet, though...)
Yes.
Technically Gorsuch is correct in his ruling. We hated it when Trump was forced to keep Obama’s Dreamers policy.
But having said that, we still do have other federal regulations and policies forcing stuff about Covid vax on us. Like still allowing the emergency use ONLY Vaxes. Until they get rid of that crap the feds shouldn’t be allowed to have it both ways.
“Gorsuch acknowledged that the states may have valid concerns, but, he added, “the current border crisis is not a COVID crisis. And courts should not be in the business of perpetuating administrative edicts designed for one emergency only because elected officials has failed to address a different emergency. We are a court of law, not a policymaker of last resort.”
This lefty barely hid his beliefs and Trump Fell for his act .
