SaysWho? Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 DHS formally rescinds 'remain in Mexico' policy for migrants seeking asylum - ABC News ABCNEWS.GO.COM Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has formally rescinded the "remain in Mexico" policy for migrants seeking asylum enacted during the Trump administration. Quote "I have determined that MPP does not adequately or sustainably enhance border management in such a way as to justify the program’s extensive operational burdens and other shortfalls," Mayorkas wrote in a memo addressed to the acting ICE director. "During the course of the program, border encounters increased during certain periods and decreased during others. Moreover, in making my assessment, I share the belief that we can only manage migration in an effective, responsible, and durable manner if we approach the issue comprehensively, looking well beyond our own borders." ... "MPP is no longer a necessary or viable tool for the Department," he said. "Because my decision is informed by my assessment that MPP is not the best strategy for implementing the goals and objectives of the Biden-Harris Administration, I have no intention to resume MPP in any manner similar to the program as outlined in the January 25, 2019 Memorandum and supplemental guidance.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricofoley Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 There's absolutely no reason why packing the court should be considered beyond the pale when the court as currently constituted is just doing Calvinball shit like this 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_m_b_m_b_m Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Being against court packing at this point is a sign you're on the take from monied interests who don't want progressive or popular legislation and are fine with continued minority rule in perpetuity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
