Supreme Court reinstates Trump's 'Remain in Mexico' policyThe United States Supreme Court refused to block a court order requiring the Biden administration to reinstate a Trump-era immigration move known as the "Remain in Mexico" policy. The policy, implemented by former President Donald Trump, requires asylum seekers at the southern border to stay in Mexico while they await hearings in U.S. courtrooms to determine their eligibility and status.
3 of the court’s more liberal justices – Justices Kagan, Sotomayor, and Breyer – would have accepted the application for a stay. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement criticizing the ruling.
The Trump administration put the "Remain in Mexico" policy in place in 2019. It involved sending migrants back to Mexico, rather than releasing them into the U.S., as their asylum proceedings were heard. The policy, in cooperation with Mexico, resulted in court tents being set up along the border in places like Laredo, Texas, where migrants could briefly enter for their hearings before going back to Mexico. The Trump administration argued that the policy ended "catch-and-release," which it saw as a major pull factor drawing migrants north.
Critics said the Remain in Mexico policy was cruel and led to migrants being put in danger in camps across the border. The Biden administration promised to end the policy and began processing migrants enrolled in the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) into the U.S. shortly after entering office. In June, it formally ended the program.
