For support the rule cites a New York Times article that doesn't even support that claim after the headline. In fact, the person highlighted in the article said she left Venezuela due to violence. nytimes.com/2024/01/31/us/…

Before claiming that long wait times for immigration court decisions encourage migrants to come to the US without the federal government's permission.

Here's Biden's presidential proclamation on asylum: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…

And since anyone subject to Biden's exclusion would wind up in México, it's notable that so far the Mexican government hasn't announced that it's on board--and the US government hasn't claimed that México is either.

But at least he acknowledged that more law enforcement measures are likely to increase the cost of migration.

I just watched the mayor of Yuma, Arizona say he hopes the Biden executive action results in removing some migrants so that other people are deterred from coming to the US. The host @ChrisJansing didn't point out that kind of deterrence is illegal under US immigration law.

Looking for in-depth context on asylum? See my first book, The Dispossessed, out from @VersoBooks in 2020. versobooks.com/products/869-t…

Dignitaries are assembled in the White House East Room. Biden expected to speak shortly.

The White House fact sheet about Biden's effort to curtail access to asylum criticizes Republicans for voting against the Senate immigration bill. Here's what that bill would've done. nytimes.com/2024/02/07/opi…

Has anyone seen the actual executive order on asylum, the presidential proclamation, or the DHS proposed rule? Because it'd be nice to know what exactly we're all talking about.

Exciting news for all of us at Ohio State!

I'm very happy for my colleague @gpaulrose who has been appointed as the next dean of @CWRU_Law
