DHS Improves Process for Humanitarian Exceptions to Title 42

Release Date: May 12, 2021

The following statement can be attributed to a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson: 

“As the United States continue​s to enforce the CDC Order under its Title 42 public health authority, we are working to streamline a system for identifying and lawfully processing particularly vulnerable individuals who warrant humanitarian exceptions under the order. This humanitarian exception process involves close coordination with international and non-governmental organizations in Mexico and COVID-19 testing before those identified through this process are allowed to enter the country.”
