EDITOR’S PICKS
“We Need to Stop This Rule”


The latest salvo in the Trump administration’s war on asylum came Tuesday, with 
a new rule that makes it nigh impossible for someone to get asylum if they 
arrive at the border via another country. 
<https://theintercept.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=43fc0c0fce9292d8bed09ca27&id=a0851aa1ac&e=45228c28c4>
  If the rule survives court challenges, John Washington reported, tens of 
thousands of Central Americans and others who travel through Mexico en route to 
the U.S. to ask for protection will be ineligible.

We already know the perils faced by asylum-seekers who are turned back to 
Mexico. Debbie Nathan investigated  
<https://theintercept.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=43fc0c0fce9292d8bed09ca27&id=a7e90c4380&e=45228c28c4>
 the fate of people who have to wait for their U.S. court dates in violent 
border cities under the so-called Migrant Protection Protocols.

“To call that phrase Orwellian is a gross understatement,” Nathan writes. She 
found cases of rape and kidnapping and a man pursued to Juarez by cartel 
assassins.
