Biden Administration to Expedite Removal Proceedings of Migrant Families
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Biden administration has announced plans to place some migrant
families arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border in expedited removal
proceedings. The practice allows U.S. immigration officials to deport
people without a court hearing in front of an immigration judge.
Advocates warn the policy is a violation of due process and
international law.
