Migrant Protection Protocols Metrics and Measures

Body

The Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) are a U.S. Government (USG) action whereby citizens and nationals of countries other than Mexico arriving in the United States by land from Mexico -- whether or not at a point of entry -- may be returned to Mexico pursuant to Section 235(b)(2)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) while their U.S. removal proceedings are pending under Section 240 of the INA. MPP is a core component of the USG’s efforts to address the migration crisis along the U.S.-Mexico border. (DHS Press Release - January 24, 2019) (U.S.-Mexico Joint Declaration - June 7, 2019).

The intended goals of MPP and measurements of how those goals are being met are outlined in the below document.
