This policy, often referred to as "Remain in Mexico," requires asylum seekers to stay in Mexico while U.S. immigration courts review their claims. It aims to manage the flow of asylum cases and reduce pressure on U.S. facilities. Proponents argue that it prevents overcrowding in U.S. detention centers, deters frivolous claims, and ensures an orderly asylum process. Opponents argue that it places vulnerable individuals in dangerous conditions, denies them adequate legal support, and violates international asylum protections.

This presumed a racial profile claiming that asylum seekers are only regard to Mexico rather than the whole support status. I think in general they should wait status for approval in the current country they are in depending on the circumstances like a dictorial government like a corruption of power like Haiti, North Korea and others alike. If requiring the fleeing from one home country to find another of peace and livilyhood. It should be understood that proper measures are put in place but also audited to all accounts like a Government agency meaning to be audited as well.
@B2KL8LV3mos3MO
It depends on the case, but most of the time people who are fleeing from Mexico should be given a safe place to reside.

In the end a hard yes or no is hard for me to say. People only escape like that if they are scared, but I think that they should also understand that going over illegally is against the law and should be prepared to be deterred.
@B2KPKM33mos3MO
they should be required to stay wherever they are from while their case is being processed not to tarnish a relationship with Mexico.
@B4YKFQR2wks2W
No, but they should be required to remain within the borders of the sanctuary city, they are in while they await approval or disapproval for citizenship.
@B4Y9MVV2wks2W
They should have a waiting area or residency that they can stay at in the interim because most people seeking asylum are running from violence or corrupt government and who’s to say that they won’t get killed in the time that the U.S processes their documents.
@B4XQ8FV2wks2W
No, but streamline to process so asylum seekers aren't waiting 5 or more years for their citizenship
@B4WYM8W2wks2W
I agree that there should be more organization to the method of immigration, however by denying them entrance to the country, they can be put at more risk to their situations and be met with more strife while detained.
