Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley today urged President Biden in a letter to take all necessary legal steps to terminate the Remain in Mexico policy &ndash; or&nbsp;the&nbsp;perversely named&nbsp;Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) &ndash; that placed&nbsp;tens of thousands of asylum seekers and migrants in&nbsp;danger.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wordsection1\">The letter signed by eight U.S. senators and 23 U.S. representatives comes after the&nbsp;U.S. Supreme Court&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.com\/v3\/__https:\/www.supremecourt.gov\/orders\/courtorders\/082421zr_2d9g.pdf__;!!Bg5easoyC-OII2vlEqY8mTBrtW-N4OJKAQ!dIsZg8oJ2zPvLqZIH5lv2-_QCePOsqT2KaOCHSTAKWUXa-ho8wBM9-iB5Zu9-GH3bgv_9Tuh-h0VzVgerX0$\">denegado<\/a>&nbsp;the Biden administration&rsquo;s request for an emergency stay in <i>Biden v.

The court orders leave ample room for your administration to ensure MPP never again puts another person in harm&rsquo;s way,&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/b>escribieron los legisladores.&nbsp;<b> &ldquo;The horrors of MPP are well-documented. During its implementation from January 2019 to early 2021, non-profit groups tracked over 1,500 public reports of rape, kidnapping, torture, trafficking, and other crimes carried out against asylum seekers and migrants sent back to Mexico under the policy. Since you took office and continued the Trump administration&rsquo;s unlawful Title 42 policy, which also forcibly returns people to harm in Mexico, there have been another 6,356 reports of violent attacks against migrants expelled or blocked in Mexico.&rdquo;<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wordsection1\"><b><\/b>The lawmakers concluded the letter by urging President Biden to act quickly, re-terminate MPP and decline to re-implement any iteration of the dangerous policy.&nbsp;The lawmakers&nbsp;also applauded steps that the Biden administration has taken to safely process over 13,000 individuals previously subjected to MPP.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wordsection1\">In addition to Wyden and Merkley, the letter led by U.S. Sen.
