Trump calls for changes to asylum system, including fees and expedited hearings, to address surge of migrants
By Felicia Sonmez Felicia Sonmez National reporter on The Washington Post's breaking political news team Email Bio Follow April 29 at 9:08 PM President Trump is directing his administration to take steps to change the way asylum cases are handled, including charging fees for asylum applications and requiring immigration courts to handle cases within 180 days of filing.
“The extensive resources required to process and care for these individuals pulls U.S. Customs and Border Protection personnel away from securing our Nation’s borders,” Trump’s latest memorandum reads. It calls for regulations charging a fee for asylum applications as well as ensuring that, “absent exceptional circumstances,” all asylum applications will be adjudicated within 180 days of filing.
