Republican attorneys general are requesting Biden to follow the law and allow for a period of public comment before unilaterally unleashing migrant caravans on the United States.
The Biden administration claims that they must fight in the courts to uphold the mask mandate on airlines and public transportation while arguing it is time to do away with Title 42 restrictions on the southern border.
The Biden administration appears to have violated the law by unilaterally announcing this policy shift without allowing for a period of public comment as required by the federal Administrative Procedure Act.

Arizona Louisiana, and Missouri filed the lawsuit against Biden’s decision to end Title 42 on May 23.
The decision, which was made by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention comes at a time when the CDC is attempting to maintain restrictions on the American public.
It is widely accepted by both Democrats and Republicans that a sharp increase in both legal and illegal immigration will follow the rescinding of the policy.
