What is happening at the Arizona border right now that Title 42 is expired?

The Gaggle: An Arizona politics podcast

Title 42, the pandemic-era law that authorized the quick expulsion of migrants, has expired.

In its place, the U.S. government is implementing enforcement policies meant to reduce the number of people reaching the U.S.-Mexico border while also creating opportunities for asylum seekers to gain protection within the country.

The transition to the new policies is expected to create significant challenges as border communities, the federal agencies and the non-governmental organizations that cater to the migrant population adapt to the changes that went into effect May 12.

What is next for migrants seeking shelter in the U.S.? And how will Congress handle this political hot potato moving forward?
