Abstract:
Harold Koh, a top legal advisor at the State Department, resigned after the Biden administration’s use of Title 42 to expel hundreds of thousands of migrants, calling it “inhumane” and “illegal.”[1]
In an internal memo, Koh criticized the Biden administration’s use of Title 42 and was displeased with the administration’s use of the policy, especially considering he “strongly supports” the administration.[2]
