The Biden administration said on Friday that it has expanded the Trump-era "Remain in Mexico" program, which it had initially abolished before being blocked by a court order, to the Rio Grande Valley sector -- typically the busiest part of the border for illegal migration.
A DHS spokesperson confirmed to Fox that enrollments in the program, officially called the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), began on Jan. 19 in the sector, with migrants being returned to Mexico via the Brownsville port of entry. Migrants are also being returned from San Diego and El Paso. CBS News first reported the expansion into RGV.
The Remain-in-Mexico policy was set up in 2019 as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to end "catch-and-release" by which migrants were released into the interior as their asylum claims were processed.
MPP saw migrants returned to Mexico for their proceedings, and it was hailed by Trump officials as a way to remove a key pull factor for migrants coming north.

Remain in Mexico getting expanded because Trump was right in the first place
Boy....Brandon just can’t get a break this week. LOL
No. It’s because Hispanics are beginning to vote for conservatives.
Tell BiXiden that the Rooskies are massing on our southern border, not next to the Ukraine.
With Biden it is the opposite. His executive orders remain in place until they wind their way up in the courts where they are found to be illegal. Not having "Remain in Mexico" for almost a full year is part of why we had about 2 MILLION illegals cross the border and get processed, most of whom were transported by us taxpayers throughout the country.
This doesn't even count the invaders who did not engage border authorities. No TV coverage about the border. No questions at Biden's 2 hour press conference. It is sickening.
After 2+ million from 150 countries invaded he must have noticed his poll numbers.
