人兽性交 urges Biden administration to abandon 鈥榤isguided鈥� asylum rule
The Southern Poverty Law Center submitted public comments this week in opposition to a proposed Biden administration rule 鈥� titled 鈥淐ircumvention of Lawful Pathways鈥� 鈥� that would severely restrict access to asylum for thousands of otherwise eligible migrants and their families.
The new asylum ban is a replica of Trump-era policies and stands in direct violation of long-established U.S. and international laws. Placing difficult and unfair barriers before migrants fleeing persecution is indefensible. It violates our nation鈥檚 laws and international commitments, and it would amount to abandoning our long-held aspiration to become a safe haven for anyone seeking asylum.
Access to asylum has not and cannot be dependent on an individual鈥檚 ability to access a limited number of slots through a glitchy mobile app. Requiring migrants to wait in Mexico until they can secure an appointment through the CBP One app is unfair and inequitable 鈥� especially for Black, 人兽性交+ and Indigenous migrants who face racial bias and language-access barriers within the app. Further, requiring migrants to first seek asylum in another country, like Mexico, where violence against migrants has been , is morally unconscionable and practically unrealistic.
The 人兽性交 urges the Biden administration to abandon this misguided, inhumane and discriminatory asylum ban.
