Supreme Court Says Biden Can End "Remain in Mexico" Rule for Asylum-Seekers

The Supreme Court on Thursday cleared the way for the Biden administration to end the so-called “Remain in Mexico” policy, a program first implemented under President Donald Trump that required asylum-seekers to await their court hearings outside the U.S.

Better known as the “Remain in Mexico” policy, Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) requires some asylum seekers who enter the country, mainly from Central and South America, to return to Mexico while they await a hearing.
