Title 42

We and our co-authors filed this request to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights on behalf of asylum seekers who have been or would be expelled from the United States under Title 42.

We joined other human and migrant rights organizations and coalitions in submitting a report to the UN Special Rapporteur on the Human Rights of Migrants to contribute to the Report of the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants: Human rights violations at international borders: trends

We joined a letter to President Biden and President López Obrador urging them to center their discussion of migration on human rights, protection, and the expansion of legal pathways and respect commitments in the four pillars of the Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection.

This memo explains how relying on a "manifestation of fear" process, or “shout test,” at the border results in refugees being returned to danger, in violation of international law.

This resource, designed for people seeking asylum at the border who are approached by reporters, includes important safety and privacy considerations and suggestions for navigating difficult questions.

Carta pública dirigida a la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores de México, Alicia Báracena para hacer un llamado para que México no acepte ningún acuerdo adicional con Estados Unidos que incremente expulsiones de personas, desde ese país a territorio mexicano, transgrediendo aún más el derecho a solicitar y recibir asilo y exponiendo a las personas en situación de movilidad a abusos y violaciones a derechos humanos.

We joined an open letter addressed to the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of Mexico, Alicia Báracena, urging the Mexican government to refrain from agreeing to more migrant expulsions from the United States in light of restrictive, anti-asylum proposals being considered by the U.S. Congress.

This letter condemns the Biden administration's expansion of Title 42 and calls on the United States and all signatory countries of the Los Angeles Declaration to reverse course and ensure the humane reception of Venezuelans and others seeking safety in the region.

We joined a letter to President Biden, President Lopez Obrador, and Prime Minister Trudeau, urging them to fulfill the commitment made in the LA Declaration on Migration and Protection and center human rights, humanitarian protection, and access to asylum for individuals fleeing persecution.
