The Hill published a centrist article reporting on U.S. District Judge T. Kent Wetherell’s ruling that blocks the Biden administration’s policy to release migrants on parole.

However, the judge’s decision halts the implementation of this policy, stating that the administration exceeded its authority in creating it.
A left-leaning article by POLITICO highlighted a statement made by Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas regarding Biden’s policy of granting parole to migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border into Texas.

The ruling poses a setback to the Biden administration’s attempts to manage overcrowding and streamline the immigration process at the border. Fox also highlighted that the decision comes as migrants surge to the borders as Title 42 expires.
