Although the Department issued a June 2021 memorandum that terminated MPP, a Texas district court vacated that prior termination determination and issued an injunction that requires the Department to work in good faith to re-start MPP. The Department has appealed that injunction,\u201d DHS stated. \u201cA new memorandum terminating MPP will not take effect until the current injunction is lifted by court order.&nbsp; In issuing a new memorandum terminating MPP, the Department intends to address the concerns raised by the courts with respect to the prior memorandum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DHS added that it has been \u201cworking in good faith\u201d to restart the policy as Kacsmaryk ordered in August. Though the federal government is still legally obligated to enforce the \u201cRemain in Mexico\u201d policy, which states that all migrants making asylum claims in the United States must remain in Mexico while their claims are processed, the Biden administration has released thousands of illegal migrants into the United States to await their court date. The DHS said:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"22\">\n<p><em>In the meantime, while the court injunction remains in effect, the Department has been working in good faith to re-start MPP in compliance with the order, and it will continue to do so. To that end, the Department, working with the Department of State, is engaged in ongoing and high-level diplomatic discussions with Mexico. Simultaneously, the Department has instituted an interagency Task Force to efficiently rebuild the infrastructure and reapportioning the staffing that will be needed to restart MPP once that concurrence has been obtained. Among many other steps, the Task Force is updating policies and procedures to account for COVID-19 and preparing to put in place contracts to rebuild the soft-sided Immigration Hearing Facilities used for court proceedings associated with MPP.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The Department remains committed to building a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system that upholds our laws and values.&nbsp; The Department also continues to process individuals in accordance with U.S. law and our mission.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>On Sunday, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas admitted that roughly 12,000 illegal migrants from the wave of border crossers that flowed into Del Rio, Texas, recently have been released into the United States.
