Justices Must Reject Biden's Appeal, Let 'Remain in Mexico' Policy Stand

The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear arguments in Biden v. Texas, an appeal filed by President Joe Biden's Justice Department of a lower court ruling in favor of Texas and Missouri.

The appeal seeks to end a policy that's essential to deterring fraudulent asylum claims by aliens.

The DHS found that after the Migrant Protection Protocols were implemented, total border encounters decreased by 64%, while border encounters with illegal aliens from the Northern Triangle decreased by 80%. It would be an understatement to say that the Migrant Protection Protocols have been an overwhelmingly successful policy.

As Texas and Missouri point out in their Supreme Court brief, despite DHS officials warning the Biden transition team that suspending the Migrant Protection Protocols would lead to a resurgence of illegal aliens entering the country and overwhelm the Border Patrol's capacity and facilities, Biden suspended enrollments in the protocols on his first day in office.

The alarming crisis at the southern border and the Biden administration's reckless actions led Missouri and Texas to file suit in federal court in April challenging the January suspension of the Migrant Protection Protocols and asking for an injunction to reinstitute the policy.

How did the Biden administration respond to the unprecedented border crisis? On June 1, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas permanently ended the Migrant Protection Protocols, ignoring the ongoing surge of illegal aliens flooding across the border that by the end of the year had resulted in the highest recorded number of illegal aliens to ever cross our border.

Above all else, it appears that the Biden administration is adamant on releasing illegal aliens into the country in spite of an ongoing immigration crisis caused by Biden's de facto open-border policy, the clear factual evidence supporting the efficacy of the protocols, and the total absence of a coherent legal argument justifying the policy's suspension and termination.
