AI Summary
This bill aims to make the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), also known as the "Remain in Mexico" policy, mandatory. The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to replace the permissive language "may" with the mandatory language "shall" regarding the implementation of the MPP, which requires certain asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their cases are processed in the United States.
