BREAKING: Supreme Court delays end of Title 42, allowing border expulsions to remain in place for now.
The brief order came after Republican-led states asked the Supreme Court to keep the policy in place.
Roberts ordered that the federal district court ruling, which was due to go into effect on Wednesday, be put on hold until the Supreme Court acts. He asked the Biden administration and groups challenging the policy to file a response to the states' request by Tuesday afternoon. Nineteen states led by Arizona and Louisiana filed an emergency request after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit last week
their request to intervene in the case in a bid to prevent the policy, known as Title 42, from being wound down.
