As of September only 11 out of 47,000 people affected by the 'Remain in Mexico' program had been granted asylum.
Under the controversial"Remain in Mexico" program, or Migrant Protection Protocols, tens of thousands of asylum seekers have been forced to stay in Mexico while their immigration cases are processed in the U.S.
TRAC's data also shows that the majority of the cases are being processed in Texas immigration court, with more than 34,000 cases being processed there as of September. Meanwhile, just over 34,200 cases had been processed in California. The family had arrived at the San Ysidro port of entry in San Diego, California, in May to formally request asylum, but were forced to wait in Tijuana, Mexico, where they were once again returned after expressing fears over being made to stay there during an immigration hearing on September 11.
