Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted December 22, 2019 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted December 22, 2019 It was never easy for migrants to win asylum cases in U.S. immigration courts. But now, it's nearly impossible. Out of tens of thousands of migrants who have arrived at the southern border in recent months, just 117 have been granted protection by a judge. That's according to the latest immigration court data released Thursday by the TRAC Immigration project at Syracuse University. The U.S. asylum system has been upended by the Remain in Mexico program, also known as the Migrant Protection Protocols. More than 55,000 migrants have been told to wait in Mexico under the program, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The court data released Thursday show that about 24,000 of their cases had been completed as of Nov. 19 The success rate is less than 1%. "It's very clear at this point that the design of the program is to basically eviscerate asylum law as we know it," says Jodi Goodwin, a longtime immigration lawyer in Harlingen, Texas. Immigrant advocates say this is what the Trump administration wanted when it implemented the Remain in Mexico program. Migrants who are forced to wait in Mexico are stressed by the time they're allowed into the U.S. for court, says Lynn Stopher, a staff attorney with the National Immigrant Justice Center. She describes seeing her client at a hearing last week in Laredo, Texas. "She's had nothing to eat. She's also exhausted, physically and emotionally," Stopher said. "And she's expected to testify about the most traumatic experiences of her life to a video camera." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambroski Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 This is how it should be. Being granted "asylum" has very specific criteria. Not just sneaking across the border, getting caught and claiming it like the retard libtwats want you to believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodtick Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Americans pay big money to go on vacation in Mexico. The migrants should just go to the all inclusive Rivera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course there is criteria but this new policy is simply a way of making people abandon their attempts at gaining asylum by waiting them out.

Just quoting the text Steve, not directed towards you. Why would this be any different waiting in the US vs in Mexico? Really says something.

Rod Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Asylum claims are almost all BS people are leaving the states to claim asylum in Canada, claiming they’re fleeing persecution... from the US.. it’s all nonsense but we have to pay them to live while their cases are heard.
