Is the asylum system in the United States at risk?

Recently, statements by Stephen Miller, a senior advisor to the White House, described the asylum system as “fraudulent.” This has raised concern among many people who currently have a pending case or are considering applying for asylum.

It is important to remember that asylum is not a discretionary benefit, but a system protected by laws passed by Congress and international treaties. It allows individuals who have been persecuted due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group to receive legal protection in the United States.

These cases continue to be reviewed by asylum officers and immigration judges, regardless of political statements.

If you have suffered persecution or fear returning to your country for any of these reasons, it is essential that you understand your rights and legal options.

Every case is different.
