A Timeline of the Trump Administration’s Efforts to End Asylum

The National Immigrant Justice Center has put together a “A Timeline of the Trump Administration’s Efforts to End Asylum.”  The timeline notes that “[s]ince President Trump’s inauguration, the federal government has unleashed relentless attacks on the United States asylum system and those who seek safety on our shores. Internal memos have revealed these efforts to be concerted, organized, and implemented toward the goal of ending asylum in the United States as we know it.2 This timeline highlights the major events comprising the administration’s assault on asylum seekers.”
