US judge blocks Biden’s new border asylum restrictions FMTNews FMTWorld
The number of migrants crossing the US-Mexico border illegally declined after President Joe Biden’s regulation took effect.
Biden, a Democrat, took office in 2021 pledging to reverse many of the hardline policies of former President Donald Trump, a Republican, but has adopted some Trump-like border measures as record numbers of migrants have been caught crossing illegally. The number of migrants caught crossing the border illegally plummeted in recent months after the new regulation went into place. Whether the trend will continue if the new asylum restrictions are blocked remains unclear.
The Biden administration argued that thousands of migrants per month can enter the US from abroad through new programmes, such as one for certain migrants with US sponsors. But Tigar said those programmes were not open to everyone and such moves were “irrelevant to the availability of asylum.” Reuters earlier this month found tens of thousands of people, including families with young children, waiting in dangerous Mexican border towns to snag a spot on the app. Humanitarian groups warned of deteriorating sanitary conditions at migrant camps.
