Paxton has filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration on Friday to prevent the CDC from withdrawing Title 42, a pandemic-era health order utilised by federal immigration agents to deport migrants, including asylum seekers, at the US-Mexico border.

More than 1 million people have been kicked out of the country because of Title 42, which was passed by the Trump administration in March 2020. Many of them have been kicked out of the U.S. over and over again after trying to get in over and over again.

The CDC can issue orders like Title 42 under the 1944 Public Health Service Act, which allows federal officials to restrict persons and things from entering the country to prevent disease spread. The agency plans to withdraw the restriction soon because COVID-19 incidences have decreased and immunizations are widely available. The order runs out on May 23.

By not following administrative procedural regulations, Paxton claims the Biden administration halted Title 42. The claim adds that if the Biden administration lifts the injunction, Texas will be liable for migrant social services.

According to the lawsuit, the Biden Administration’s disastrous open border policies and unclear and disorganised COVID-19 reaction have created a humanitarian and public safety disaster on our southern border.

U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, who is named as a defendant in the lawsuit, said on Thursday during a virtual event with the Council on Foreign Relations that health orders are not immigration policies.

“You can’t solve a migratory problem with a health law. You employ migration laws to overcome obstacles. “You can’t use health as a cover to deal with migration,” he remarked.
