The southwestern border prepares for an influx

Title 42 is set to come to an end in four days. That's the pandemic-era CDC policy that allowed officials at the border to turn migrants and asylum seekers away because of public health concerns. But last month, a federal judge stopped the Biden administration from winding down this border policy and its fate is uncertain. For now, lawmakers, asylum lawyers, and non-profits along the border continue to prepare for the expected surge that would accompany the end of this policy, whether it happens next week or months from now. Plus, a Russian soldier pleads guilty to killing an unarmed civilian in Ukraine. And, new research on COVID safety and outdoor events. Guests: Michelle Hackman, immigration reporter for The Wall Street Journal; and Axios' Asher Price.
