“The administration also moved to disband the Biden-era Family Reunification Task Force, which worked to reunite children who were split up from their parents under Trump’s first-term family separation policy. Roughly 4,600 migrant children were separated from their parents during the Trump administration. As of March, about 70% had been reunited with their families, according to a DHS status report…. In a separate move, the administration reinstated the controversial ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy, officially known as the Migrant Protection Protocols. The program forces asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their cases are adjudicated in the US immigration courts. Most migrants subjected to the policy were ultimately denied asylum…. During Trump’s inauguration celebrations on Monday, the administration abruptly ended the CBP One app system, which had allowed migrants to schedule appointments along the southern border. The decision effectively closed legal avenues for most asylum seekers.” – Bloomberg
