The Biden administration has fought the restart of MPP, which President Joe Biden halted as soon as he took office. However the program was ordered remanded after a lawsuit brought by the states of Texas and Missouri.
DHS has listed on its website several changes to the new MPP program, including ensuring those who express a fear of return be allowed access to legal counsel within 24 hours. Individuals also “may be disenrolled due to a finding of vulnerability at any point in the process.”
They also are trying to complete the cases much quicker this time as the nationwide backlog of immigration cases is almost 1.6 million right now, according to data by Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, which tracks U.S. immigration cases.
