On September 11, 2019, the Supreme Court determined that the Asylum Ban 2.0 (AKA the “safe third country” rule) would be enforced nationwide (a lawsuit over the legality of the rule is still winding through the lower courts). This means that asylum seekers who entered the country on or after July 16, 2019, now have to show that they applied for asylum in countries they traveled through before they can apply for asylum in the United States. Seeking asylum in Mexico is not an option for LGBTQ+ refugees. We stand against the new ban and will continue to advocate for asylum seekers.
