The Biden administration's new Asylum Policy has left some migrants stranded at the Mexico Border, according to a Reuters investigation. The policy requires migrants to make an appointment on a government-run smartphone app before approaching the border, but many do not have access to a device. Migrants who fail the screening can be deported and banned from entering the US for five years. While the policy has resulted in a 69% drop in illegal border crossings, critics argue that it puts vulnerable populations at risk and goes against international and moral commitments.
