The U.S. will begin denying asylum on Thursday to migrants who show up at the Mexico border without first seeking protection, as plans are being finalized to create new legal pathways.
Biden said Tuesday his administration was working to make the change orderly. "But it remains to be seen," he told reporters. "It’s going to be chaotic for a while."
In the Mexican border city of Reynosa, across from McAllen, Texas, groups on Tuesday handed out flyers that explained in English and Haitian Creole how to register for the CBP One app, which the U.S. has been using to allow migrants to schedule an appointment to try to gain admittance. Authorities plan to increase the number of appointments amid widespread frustration, and they're prioritizing people who have been waiting longest for appointments.
Most of the people going to the U.S.-Mexico border illegally are fleeing persecution or poverty in their home countries. They ask for asylum and have generally been allowed into the U.S. to wait out their cases. That process can take years under a badly strained immigration court system, and it has prompted increasing numbers to go to the border hoping to get into the U.S.Even though many ask for asylum, the legal pathway is narrow, and most do not meet the standard.
