Bill Summary
A BILL To amend section 235(b)(2)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act to require the implementation of the Migrant Protection Protocols.
AI Summary
This bill, the "Make the Migrant Protection Protocols Mandatory Act of 2023," amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to require the implementation of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), which previously were optional. The MPP, also known as the "Remain in Mexico" policy, required certain asylum seekers entering the United States to be returned to Mexico to await their immigration proceedings. By replacing the word "may" with "shall," this bill makes the implementation of the MPP mandatory for the Department of Homeland Security.
