CHC Chair Statement on Remain in Mexico Supreme Court Decision
Washington, D.C. – Chair Dr. Raul Ruiz issued the following statement:
"While today's Supreme Court decision is a step in the right direction, work remains to build a more fair and humane asylum process. We must do more to prevent tragedies like what we saw unfold in San Antonio on Monday. Reinstating policies that bar access to asylum will only put more lives at risk. The CHC stands ready to rebuild our immigration system as a whole and call on Republican Senators to stand up and help us get comprehensive immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship across the finish line. Fixing our broken immigration system will help us improve border efficiency, keep families together, and restore dignity and humanity in our asylum process."
