The Department of Homeland Security is implementing a number of updates to the administration's controversial policy of returning migrants to Mexico for the duration of their US court proceedings, an implicit acknowledgment that changes were needed
The changes -- aimed at speeding up court case processing, among other things -- will include a review of information-sharing procedures between federal agencies.Lawmakers and immigrant advocates have accused the Trump administration of eroding due process and sending migrants to wait in dangerous conditions while it has implemented the Migrant Protection Protocols, also known as the"Remain in Mexico" program.
Homeland Security expands migrant returns to Mexico by driving migrants hundreds of miles"That said, the spirit of the Report is to find ways for increasing the effective and efficient implementation of MPP -- that is something to which we are collectively committed," wrote acting Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan, acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Matthew Albence and acting Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Mark Koumans in the memo.
