Earlier this year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced it planned to lift the order.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">\n<div id=\"ld-12578241793956198-359\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cBut a lawsuit filed by 24 states at least temporarily put plans to end the rule to a halt, with a Louisiana U.S. District Judge ruling that the restrictions can stay in place until the lawsuit is resolved,\u201d Fox News noted. \u201cThe states have argued that lifting the rule would lead to a \u2018wave of illegal migration and drug trafficking.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Critics have pointed fingers at President Biden for creating what has turned into a migrant crisis after reversing the vast majority of immigration and border security policies Trump implemented \u2014 which led to historic reductions in illegal crossings. Trump also managed to finance the construction of hundreds of miles of border wall, which some Border Patrol agents have said was helpful in curbing illegal crossings.<\/p>\n<p>The results of his policy reversals are historic levels of illegal immigration and drug smuggling, which have been detrimental to his approval rating and may have led to a change of heart.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t leave your town or city or community,\u201d Biden said in an interview with ABC last year. \u201cWe\u2019re gonna make sure we have facilities in those cities and towns run by department of \u2014 by DHS and also access with HHS, the Health and Human Services, to say you can apply for asylum from where you are right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\"><\/div>\n<p>But that said, Biden\u2019s actions are speaking louder than his words. He has yet to re-impose Trump-era rules and his administration is continuing to argue against border security measures Trump enacted that Biden cannot quickly end.<\/p>\n<p>That sends the message to migrants that it is still okay to try and make it to the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow we need him to keep his promise.\u201d the Haitian migrant said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-8\">\n<div id=\"adcovery-3198\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Republican governors have attempted to give Biden a taste of his medicine.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this spring, Govs. Greg Abbott of Texas and Doug Ducey of Arizona&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/conservativebrief.com\/arizona-joins-62880\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">began busing<\/a>&nbsp;illegal migrants to Washington, D.C., as a means of keeping them out of their states and forcing the administration to have to deal with them directly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccording to TDEM, Abbott\u2019s plan is already working.
