It resulted in tent courts being set up along the southern border, and nearly 70,000 migrants returned under the program.Proponents hailed the program as a success, arguing that by not releasing migrants into the U.S., it reduced the pull factors bringing them north while also cutting down on fraudulent asylum claims.

The administration was ultimately ordered by a Texas judge in December to reinstate the program, but Mexico this year rejected any effort to reinstate it. , in a speech to Republicans in Georgia on Saturday, repeated a story of how he told the Mexican president:"We want to have a policy of Remain-in-Mexico."He also repeated his disapproval of"catch-and-release" policies
