Trump-appointed judge orders restoration of immigration policy rejected by Biden

Washington, August 18 (RHC)-- In U.S. immigration news, the Joe Biden administration has appealed a Texas federal judge’s order to reinstate the contested Trump-era “Remain in Mexico” program. 

In his decision, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk — a Trump appointee — ruled the Biden administration “failed to consider several of the main benefits” of the 2019 policy, formally known as the Migrant Protection Protocols.  The program forced some 68,000 asylum seekers to wait in often extremely dangerous conditions in Mexico while their cases made their way through U.S. courts. 
Many reported kidnappings and facing brutal violence while waiting in Mexico.  

The Biden administration officially terminated the program in June.  Now, due to the judicial order, it's back on the front burner.
