Several thousand asylum-seekers whom the Biden administration had forced to remain in Mexico through the duration of their legal proceedings will be admitted into the United States as their cases proceed in court following a district court order issued Monday.
Roughly 5,500 migrants who were enrolled into the Trump-era Migrant Protection Protocols since President Joe Biden took office 19 months ago are expected to be unenrolled from the border program and permitted into the country, according to immigration policy analysts.
Doris Meissner, a former Department of Homeland Security agency head and director of the Migration Policy Institute’s U.S. Immigration Policy Program, said the change means the roughly 5,500 asylum-seekers still waiting in Mexico will be admitted to the U.S. through the ports of entry.“They will be granted parole and permitted to be in the U.S. while they continue to pursue their asylum claims,” Meissner wrote in an email.
Under President Donald Trump, the DHS implemented MPP in 2019 and returned to Mexico approximately 70,000 migrants who claimed asylum after illegally entering the country or entering at ports of entry. Biden twice attempted to halt MPP but was held up in court several times.
