What to expect in Arizona when border restriction is lifted

Many regulations and limitations that went into effect around the
beginning of COVID-19 are gone. You’re allowed back inside
restaurants, you can buy as many rolls of toilet paper at once as
you’d like, and you don’t have to wear a mask while doing either.
And now added to the list of regulations that will be lifted is
Title 42.  Title 42 is a public health code that was
established in 1944 as a part of the Public Health Services Act. It
gives the United States the ability to deny entry of non-citizens
in the case of disease that could be seen as a serious danger to
the U.S. It was rarely used but was put into effect in March
2020 when the spread of COVID-19 became more serious. Since then,
it has been used more than 1.7 million times by Customs and Border
Protection.  President Joe Biden’s administration announced it
will rescind the current policy later in May after more than
two years, but not everyone agrees that it’s the right
move. In this week's episode of The Gaggle, a politics podcast
by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com, hosts Yvonne Wingett
Sanchez and Ron Hansen are joined by Arizona Republic reporters
Rafael Carranza and Clara Migoya to parse through Title 42, how it
is affecting Arizona's border, and what the future holds. Learn
