The MPP returns to San Diego

In fact, in response to this legal determination ordering the reinstatement of the MPP policy, Biden resumed the MPP at the San Diego-Tijuana border.

The immigration landscape since its implementation

The MPP establishes that asylum seekers must wait in Mexico until the resolution of their cases, and only upon approval of their application may they enter the US.

Official figures show that since December 8, 2021, when this measure was restored, more than 200 people have been returned to Mexico’s southern border under the MPP policy.

Irregular migration will not allow you to have guarantees for your future. It is best to seek reliable expert help and follow the legal guidelines established by the local immigration system.

Humanitarian changes in the current implementation

The Biden administration has attempted to rescind this measure twice without success. However, given the legal obligation it now has, it is trying to make certain modifications to make the MPP rule at least a little more humane.

Let’s look at some of the changes Biden has made to the policy:

  • Facilitate access to technological resources for asylum seekers.
  • Create agreements with the Mexican government to increase security at temporary shelters.
  • Asylum seekers who return to Mexico under this policy will have direct transportation to shelters.
  • With the implementation in San Diego, it is expected that more ports of exit will be available along the southern border.
  • Expedite the processing of pending cases.

The Supreme Court’s evaluation

Despite the reimplementation of this rule, Democratic leaders are looking for legal alternatives to be able to repeal it, especially because, of the policies formulated during the Trump administration, this one affects the most vulnerable immigrant communities.

Therefore, it is for this reason that the Biden administration recently asked the Supreme Court to evaluate the possibility of suspending the MPP, taking into account the multiple humanitarian criticisms it has received since its initial implementation in 2019.
