WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The United States is reviewing all asylum cases approved under President Joe Biden, the Department of Homeland Security said on Thursday, following the shooting of two National Guard members by an Afghan man.
“Effective immediately, processing of all immigration requests relating to Afghan nationals is stopped indefinitely pending further review of security and vetting protocols,” department spokesperson Tricia Mclaughlin said in a statement.
“The Trump Administration is also reviewing all asylum cases approved under the Biden Administration, which failed to vet these applicants on a massive scale.”
