Biden administration is building two new tent cities to house migrants to restart Remain in Mexico policy that will cost $24.6million a month
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • The Biden administration plans to reinstate Trump's 'remain in Mexico' policy

  • Part of that will include spending $14 million to rebuild tent cities in Texas

  • The tent cities are part of an expansion to accommodate a 1.4M-case backlog

  • Asylum seekers will have to wait in Mexico for hearings in U.S. immigration court

  • U.S. Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas ended the policy in June after an internal review, saying it achieved 'mixed effectiveness'

  • But in August a federal judge sided with Texas and Missouri, saying the policy needed to be reinstated 'in good faith'

  • DHS said in a statement that it 'remains committed to building a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system that upholds our laws and values'
