@MrMSBranham "As of March 2022, over 1.6 million single adults, nearly 200,000 individuals in a family unit, and nearly 16,000 unaccompanied minors have been expelled cumulatively under Title 42. The number of family expulsions under Title 42 also grew between FY2020 and FY2021, while expulsions of unaccompanied minors decreased, reflecting their exemption from the policy beginning in February of 2021. These encounter counts reflect repeat encounters with individuals, as each attempt by the same individual to cross the border is counted as a new encounter.28 In the last 6 months of 2021, a quarter of the encounters under Title 42 were of the same individuals on multiple occasions, with recidivism rates under the authority being at their highest levels in over a decade. While Title 42 is intended COVID-19 exposure risk at the border, it has led to an increasing number of encounters at the border. This is in large part because, unlike Title 8, migrants apprehended under Title 42 are immediately expelled and, consequently, those with repeat encounters do not face any penalties and may make repeated attempts to cross."

East Bay Sanctuary Vs Trump, It's the court case that reversed Trumps policy on requiring asylum seekers to use a port of entry or face jail and separations. Trump attempted to put a stay on this reversal that was denied. Page 19-21 of the courts findings and decision.
"Congress’s determination that place of entry not be disqualifying to an application for asylum is consistent with the treaty obligations underlying §1158’s asylum provisions. Congress enacted the Refugee Act of 1980, including 8 U.S.C. §1158, “to bring United States refugee law into conformance with the 1967 United Nations Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees, 19 U.S.T. 6223, T.I.A.S. No. 6577, to which the United States acceded in 1968.”
Because the Protocol is not “self-executing,” it “does not have the force of law in American courts.” Khan v. Holder, 584 F.3d 773, 783 (9th Cir. 2009). Nonetheless, it provides “a useful guide in determining congressional intent in enacting the Refugee Act.” Id.(citation omitted); see also Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. at 436-37.Of particular relevance here, Article 31of the Protocol provides: The Contracting States shall not impose penalties, on account of their illegal entry or presence, on refugees who, coming directly from a territory where their life or freedom was threatened in the sense of [A]rticle 1, enter or are present in their territory without authorization, provided they present themselves without delay to the authorities and show good cause for their illegal entry or presence.19 U.S.T. at 6275 (emphasis added).Considering the text and structure of the statute, as well as the interpretive guide of the U.N. Protocol, reveals Congress’s unambiguous intent. The failure to comply with entry requirements such as arriving at a designated port of entry should bear little, if any, weight in the asylum process. The Rule reaches the opposite result by adopting a categorical bar based solely “[a]n alien present in the United States who has not been admitted or who arrives in the United States (whether or not at a designated port of arrival and including an alien who is brought to the United States after having been interdicted in international or United States waters) shall be deemed for purposes of this chapter an applicant for admission.” Inadmissible aliens are generally placed in full removal proceedings."
