Martes 6 de junio de 2023 | Excelsior | El fin del Título 42: una crisis migratoria que no fue | El pasado 11 de mayo, el gobierno de Estados Unidos decidió poner fin a la emergencia de salud pública por covid-19. Dicha decisión terminó también con la política migratoria conocida como Título 42, que desde mayo del 2020 limitaba el acceso de personas migrantes o solicitantes de asilo a EU. Ante el fin de dicha política, la opinión pública auguraba un éxodo masivo de personas migrantes que se traduciría en una situación caótica en la frontera de México con EU. Dicha crisis no sucedió. | Política migratoria Título 42 |

En su paso, muchos se quedan en territorio mexicano al verlo como una nación alternativa y piden refugio porque no tienen manera de continuar con el plan A. | Política migratoria Solicitudes de Refugio |

[...] Esta sentencia permite la entrada en vigor de una directiva adoptada en septiembre de 2021 por el secretario de Seguridad Interior, Alejandro Mayorkas, que reclamaba a la Policía de Migración centrar sus esfuerzos en los extranjeros que supongan una amenaza terrorista o delictiva y los que arribaron al país después del 1º de noviembre de 2020. |

Wednesday June 7, 2023 | NPR | To keep immigrants from fleeing, Florida GOP focus on immigration law loopholes | Florida Republicans who voted to pass the state's imminent anti-immigration law are trying to curb a potentially disastrous mass exodus of undocumented residents by touting the legislation's many "loopholes." GOP Rep. Rick Roth, a third generation farmer, told NPR on Tuesday that state Senate Bill 1718, which goes into effect on July 1, was designed to "scare migrants." But he admitted that he and his colleagues were unprepared for the destabilization it would cause among the state's more established immigrant communities. |

Friday June 9, 2023 | The Guardian | EU agrees radical reforms on migration and asylum laws | The EU has agreed radical reforms of its migration and asylum laws including charges of €20,000 (£17,200) per head for member countries that refuse to host refugees. After almost 12 hours of intense negotiations in Luxembourg, and years of fighting, interior ministers struck a deal on Thursday on what they described as a “historical” new approach to what one politician described as an often “toxic topic”. Maria Malmer Stenergard, who was part of the Swedish lead negotiating team, said: “I didn’t really believe I would be sitting here saying this … but we have adopted general approaches on the asylum and migration management regulation and asylum procedure regulation.” |

Friday June 9, 2023 | CNN | White House ramps up efforts to slow migration in the hemisphere, capitalizing on low border crossings | Biden administration officials are doubling down on efforts to stem the flow of migrants journeying to the US-Mexico border, capitalizing on nearly a month of low border crossings in the wake of the lifting of a Covid-era restriction. The handling of the US southern border has dogged President Joe Biden over the course of his presidency, starting with an influx of unaccompanied migrant children just weeks into his administration and followed by thousands of primarily Haitian migrants who gathered under a bridge along the Texas-Mexico border. It’s a political vulnerability for Biden, as the 2024 presidential election kicks into gear and Republican presidential candidates attack his border policies on the campaign trail. House Republicans are also making the issue a centerpiece, as they push forward with potential impeachment proceedings of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. |

Saturday June 17, 2023 | CNN | Mexico plans to launch an asylum processing app next week Rosa Flores By Rosa Flores, CNN | Mexico is launching a new app to speed up its asylum process amid record levels of asylum seekers, even after a similar US app came under fierce criticism for glitches and difficulty of use. Andrés Ramírez, head of Mexico’s refugee assistance agency (COMAR) told CNN he believed an app was necessary in order to manage an overwhelming number of asylum requests in Mexico City. [...] The new app – called simply the “pre-registration system” – will allow individuals to register their intent to seek asylum online and is hoped to speed up processing. It is expected to launch next week in Mexico City only, with other areas expected to be added at a later date, according to Ramírez. |

Greg Abbott, his latest act of political theater orchestrated to score points against President Biden and Democrats over a so-called open border policy that doesn’t actually exist. [...] [...]Los Angeles lived up to its reputation of being a city of immigrants and welcomed the bused asylum seekers with open arms.

Thursday June 22, 2023 | The Hill | Eleven years of DACA | [...] Eleven years ago, the DACA program was born out of the tireless advocacy of immigrant youth who were weary of living in the shadows, constantly fearing deportation and determined to gain some level of protection after decades of congressional inaction around immigration. Since its creation in 2012, DACA has become the zenith of President Obama’s complicated immigration legacy. It is a wildly successful administrative relief policy that has empowered hundreds of thousands of young people to continue contributing to our country and economy. For the more than 600,000 young people currently with temporary work authorizations and protections from deportations, DACA has been nothing short of life-changing. |

Tuesday June 27, 2023 | UN News | Legal protection essential for people displaced by climate change: UN expert | An independent UN-appointed climate expert on Tuesday called for full legal protection to be given to those displaced by the impacts of climate change, to guarantee their human rights. “The effects of climate change are becoming more severe, and the number of people displaced across international borders is rapidly increasing,” said Ian Fry, independent human rights expert on climate change, who took up the new post last year. “In 2020 alone, 30.7 million people were displaced from their homes due to weather-related events. Droughts were the main factor,” Mr. Fry said in his latest thematic report to the Human Rights Council in Geneva. “We must take immediate steps to give legal protection to these people.” |
