This may be just an opening negotiation.
If it gets negotiated to 30 days, it would be better than where we are now.
Curious though:
Where will this "burden of Proof" lie?
Is burden now is for the US to prove there is or is not grounds for Asylum?
If it is on the individual claiming it, what happens next?
If the individual gets his proof of his cause within 15 days of arrival, how long of a period will the Court have to investigate the validity?
What happens if they cannot meet that time frame?
If we demand asylum claims in 15 days, would the government have to produce evidence against it in a certain time frame?
Would they be granted asylum if the government could not?
Is the individual held in detention while they work this out, or, like now, are they released?
I want to see the asylum loopholes closed, to be sure, but not at the risk of creating different loopholes.
You know, the law of unintended consequences, and all that.
