Biden suspended the policy, formally known as the Migrant Protection Protocols, shortly after taking office, but Texas and Missouri challenged the move. \u201cThis is a pretty outrageous idea that a new president coming into office is not allowed to dismantle his predecessor\u2019s programs that he disagrees with,\u201d says Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, senior policy counsel at the American Immigration Council. Still, Reichlin-Melnick says the justices seem torn on their decision and that the Biden administration\u2019s amended version of \u201cRemain in Mexico\u201d still puts asylum seekers at extreme risk of violence. We also hear from asylum seekers about conditions they faced in Mexico under the program.<\/p>\n<p>#DemocracyNow<\/p>\n<p>Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on nearly 1,400 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
