Migrant center leader hopes Trump doesn't bring back 'remain in Mexico'

Catholic nun Sister Norma Pimentel says she hopes President-elect Trump doesn’t reinstate some of the same hard-line immigration policies which were a cornerstone of his first term.
She tells the outlet that she hopes the Trump-Vance administration – elected last week on a platform of clamping down hard on illegal immigration and carrying out America’s largest ever deportation operation – will not force asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico for months or even years for their immigration cases to be heard.

Trump has repeatedly lauded his Migrant Protection Protocols, more commonly referred to as "Remain in Mexico," for being fundamental in drastically reducing the number of migrants crossing the southern border. Trump is expected to bring the policy back, although it may take some time to launch and will require coordination with the Mexican government.
