Revealing Numbers from DOJ and DHS
Quantifying the scope of the border disaster, and its effects
By Andrew R. Arthur on July 21, 2019
As I noted my last post, on July 16, 2019, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued an interim final rule (IFR) with request for comment announcing a third-country-transit eligibility bar to asylum. That IFR contains some very interesting numbers that quantify the scope of the disaster that has been unfolding over the last few months on the border, the reasons for that disaster, and its effects on our immigration system.
