US Asylum Grants Plummet
According to the US Department of Justice, the number of asylum grants in the US is declining. This is due to the tightening of asylum rules under the Trump administration and the 'catch and release' policy under the Biden administration.
Reasons for the Decline
One of the reasons for the decline is the tightening of asylum rules. The Trump administration introduced new rules that made it more difficult to obtain asylum. Additionally, the 'catch and release' policy under the Biden administration led to an increase in asylum applications, which in turn led to an increase in denials.
What this Means for Migrants
The decline in asylum grants can have serious consequences for migrants. It may lead to an increase in deportations and a decrease in the number of people who can obtain asylum in the US.
