House Democrats demanded documents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for a probe into a policy from President Donald Trump’s administration that requires asylum seekers to stay in Mexico as they wait for their cases to go through U.S. immigration courts.
The policy is known as “Remain in Mexico,” or the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP).
