Update: Asylum & Immigration News, July 29, 2023

This week, we're discussing:

- A federal judge has blocked a key Biden administration policy that made many asylum applicants ineligible for protection, and which was credited with contributing to a drop in arrivals by migrants in recent weeks.

- Immigration Impact, a nonprofit group, notes that other countries are outpacing the US in attracting high-skilled immigrants, suggesting a potential failure in the global talent race.

- Texas Governor Greg Abbott's anti-immigration program, Operation Lone Star, is facing scrutiny over its legality and cost, with allegations of harsh treatment of migrants, federal lawsuits, and questions over its foreign policy implications.

- A report by the Migration Policy Institute proposes measures meant to address the US immigration court backlog, such as processing new cases first, terminating low-priority cases, and using remote hearings to increase court efficiency.

- Efforts by the government to provide transparency on immigration court statistics have been criticised for poor presentation, questionable inclusions and omissions, and the failure to account for individual case variations or judge biases, resulting in data that raises more questions than it provides answers.
