Migrants who attempt to cross illegally into the United States from Mexico won’t be eligible to claim asylum, the White House said in a new rule.
The announcement was made by The Department of Justice (DOJ) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Nov. 8. President Donald Trump signed a proclamation issuing the rule on Friday.
