Homeland Security built the $25-million tent courts on the border for hearings in the controversial 'Remain in Mexico' program
The Trump administration announced Wednesday that new immigration courts in tents on the Texas border with Mexico will be closed to legal observers, the press and the public.
The Laredo court heard a few cases Wednesday and is expected to ramp up operations on Monday, with remote judges hearing 200 to 250 cases a day from 20 courtrooms, said Rep. Henry Cuellar, a Democrat who represents the city and organized a tour of the tent there Tuesday.Lawyers said they were still trying to get more information about the proceedings and accused the government of making it difficult for them to represent asylum seekers.
“It is just another attempt to cover up the flaws in this sham asylum process, a process created to block refugees from finding safety in the United States,” he said.
