The rule applies to and will 'immediately' expel any individual encountered along the southern border if the provision of limiting asylum at the border has been triggered, according to officials.
Tuesday, June 4, 2024 6:21PMPresident Joe Biden is delivering remarks after he took executive action Tuesday that limits the number of migrants who can claim asylum between ports of entry at the southern U.S. border.
The United States would start accepting migrants who are claiming asylum only if there have been 14 days of encounters with 1,500 migrants or less between ports of entry, according to administration officials.Darla Miles has the report on the bill. CBP doesn't provide real-time data on border crossings. However, there were 3,600 apprehensions along the southern border on Sunday alone -- well past the threshold Biden has set to shut down all asylum claims between ports of entry, according to a source familiar with the data. Border Patrol is seeing an average of 3,500 apprehensions per day in recent weeks, according to another source -- also past the new threshold.
Administration officials said the measures would "significantly speed up" the current process for individuals who do not manifest a credible fear, which is the threshold for establishing an asylum claim in the United States. The 2,500 number was picked because that's the number negotiated in the bipartisan border bill, officials said.
Earlier this year, Senate Democrats and Republicans negotiated a bipartisan border bill that was effectively killed in the House at the behest of former President Donald Trump.Officials also pushed back on the notion that the rule is similar to that of former President Trump's, which was broad and targeted people based on other factors such as their religion.
