The Biden administration's decision to revive the rule comes amid its inability to prevent illegal aliens from entering the US.
The rule, published on Wednesday in the Federal Register, prohibits illegals from applying for asylum in the US if they did not apply for it in other countries through which they traveled, such as Mexico.
The day before Title 42's expiration, hundreds of officers were trained in enforcing the rule, CBS News reported.
The Biden administration's decision to revive the rule comes amid its ongoing failure to control the unprecedented influx of illegal aliens pouring into the country for over two years, often referred to as "Biden's Border Crisis."
The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement, "The rule presumes those who do not use lawful pathways to enter the United States are ineligible for asylum and allows the United States to remove individuals who do not establish a reasonable fear of persecution or torture in the country of removal. Noncitizens can rebut this presumption based only on exceptionally compelling circumstances."
“This Administration has led the largest expansion of legal pathways for protection in decades, and this regulation will encourage migrants to seek access to those pathways instead of arriving unlawfully in the grip of smugglers at the southern border,” said Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas.
At the same time, we continue to urge Congress to act on President Biden’s immigration reform proposal, bipartisan legislation to protect Dreamers and farm workers, and repeated requests for additional resources to hire more asylum officers and immigration judges so we can finally fix our long-broken immigration system," he continued to say.
