The Biden administration will continue to challenge Remain in Mexico.

Posted on September 9, 2021 by sethlerner1964

After an adverse ruling from a federal court, the Biden administration has said that it will continue working to end the Remain in Mexico program. The administration said that DHS has appealed the district court’s August 13 decision, but will nevertheless comply with the policy “in good faith” throughout the appeal. Approximately 70,000 migrants were subjected to the program, which required migrants seeking asylum to wait in Mexico until their cases could be heard in the U.S.

Murder of Haitian president tees up credible fear cases for Haitian asylum seekers

Posted on July 28, 2021 by sethlerner1964

Haitian President Jovenel Moise was assassinated, further illustrating the credible fear over conditions of insecurity that are forcing thousands of Haitian citizens to make their way to the U.S. in search of asylum. Immigration advocacy organizations sent a letter to Biden and top members of his administration warning of a “political vacuum” left by Moise’s murder could exacerbate violence. The letter says armed gangs control many streets, and kidnap civilians, including schoolchildren and church pastors. In May, DHS announced a new TPS status for Haiti for 18 months. However, this designation only included Haitians already in the U.S. as of May 21, 2021.

Biden to soon admit 250 ‘vulnerable’ migrants into the U.S. daily

Posted on June 30, 2021 by sethlerner1964

A DHS spokesperson confirmed that the Biden administration will soon allow up to 250 “particularly vulnerable” immigrants into the U.S. each day. This is an exception to the current policy that blocks most families and single adult migrants from crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. Already, CBP has allowed roughly 2,000 vulnerable immigrants to enter the U.S. as they await their immigration hearings, according to the ACLU, which is challenging the administration in court to give all migrants that right. Immigrants considered particularly vulnerable include those who are ill, families with very young children or immigrants who have been threatened or attacked while they wait in Mexico.

Biden administration holding 21,000 migrant children.

Posted on June 30, 2021 by sethlerner1964

The Biden administration is housing tens of thousands of migrant children seeking asylum in about 200 facilities, according to confidential data obtained by The Associated Press. The number of children in government custody has more than doubled in the last two months, now totaling close to 21,000. The facilities where the children are being held include at least a dozen unlicensed emergency facilities inside military bases, stadiums and convention centers that sidestep regulations and oversight. Attorneys, advocates and mental health experts say while some of the shelters are safe and provide necessary care, others are putting children’s health and safety in danger.
