The Biden administration will continue to block migrant families from seeking humanitarian protections at the southern border, reversing course after initially planning to exempt families from the public-health measure
WASHINGTON—The Biden administration will continue to block migrant families from seeking humanitarian protections at the southern border, according to people familiar with the matter, reversing course after initially planning to exempt families from the public-health measure known as Title 42.
The decision comes as large numbers of migrants, including families and children, illegally cross the Mexican border into the U.S. daily. At the same time, cases of Covid-19, driven by the virulent Delta variant, have been spiking in much of the U.S., adding to concerns about easing border restrictions, the people said. Earlier this month, the administration extended the border closure until at least Aug. 21, citing rising infection rates.The administration had been expected to exempt families from the border restrictions at the end of July.
