This bill would reform and improve broken immigration laws related to asylum and the detention of children who enter the country illegally. It would require asylum applications to be made in Central America or Mexico, making it unnecessary for migrants to enter the U.S. illegally.
While this bill may include worthwhile provisions to address the influx of unaccompanied minor children and migrant families crossing the border, it isn’t a broad enough solution to the problems facing U.S. immigration policy.
