Cotton challenged the Biden administration’s more lenient asylum policies Wednesday, saying the U.S. is now allowing people to claim protection if they come from countries that are, on the whole, safer than some major American cities.
said, it’s 36 people per 100,000 residents. Guatemala’s rate is 17.
“Should American citizens in places like New Orleans and Baltimore and St. Louis begin to seek asylum in countries like Honduras and Guatemala, under your asylum principles?” Mr. Cotton demanded.said his new asylum rules, issued in 2021, aren’t targeted at violence in general, but rather at people fleeing gang threats.
He also said his asylum rules restored rules that had been in place during the Obama administration but were reversed by the Trump administration.
