Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” Program to Be Phased Out

HeadlineFeb 12, 2021

BuzzFeed reports asylum seekers forced to stay in Mexico by the Trump administration will soon be allowed to start entering the U.S. Efforts to phase out Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program are expected to begin within the next two weeks. Immigrant rights advocates are calling for President Biden to fully abolish the policy. The program has forced tens of thousands of asylum seekers to wait in dangerous conditions in crowded and squalid refugee camps across northern Mexico while their cases make their way through U.S. courts.
