This complaint was filed on behalf of 11 individual asylum seekers and several organizational plaintiffs including the Tahirih Justice Center, challenging the Migration Protection Protocols.

The Tahirih Justice Center filed a lawsuit challenging the Department of Homeland Security’s Migration Protection Protocols (MPP), also known as the Remain in Mexico policy.

Tahirih issued a statement in response to the new policy announced by the Department of Homeland Security forcing asylum seekers at the southern border to remain in Mexico as they await their court dates in the U.S.
