Court cases put Biden's immigration policy under microscope

NPR’s Joel Rose joins Here & Now‘s Peter O’Dowd to discuss legal challenges involving the Biden administration’s immigration policy.

On Monday, a federal judge halted the administration’s plan to end a pandemic health policy that allowed migrants to be turned away at the border.
