Title 42:

- Title 42, a Trump-era policy allowing for the expulsion of migrants at the U.S. border during the COVID-19 pandemic, is set to end on May 11th.
- The Biden administration initially tried to end the policy last year, but was blocked by legal efforts. The termination of Title 42 is expected to result in a significant influx of migrants at the southern border. Since its enactment in 2020, over 3 million individuals have been turned away using this policy.
- In response, the Pentagon will deploy 1,500 active-duty troops to assist Customs and Border Patrol for 90 days. El Paso, a border city, has declared a state of emergency in anticipation of the migrant surge, allowing the city to open temporary shelters and use federal funds to address the issue.
Taiwan Arms Aid:

- The Biden administration plans to send $500 million in weapons aid to Taiwan using the same emergency authority previously employed over 35 times for Ukraine.
- As part of the 2023 budget, Congress authorized up to $1 billion in weapons aid for Taiwan through Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA), which allows for the transfer of articles and services from U.S. stockpiles without congressional approval during emergencies.
- This move would be the first from the $1 billion authorization. China sees Taiwan as its own territory and has increased military pressure on the island in recent years.
- The U.S. decision follows China's war games around Taiwan last month and Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen's meeting with U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
