zReportage.com Story of the Week #751: TUESDAY September 1, 2020: ASYLUM LOTTERY by ZUMA Press Newspaper San Diego Union Tribune photographer Nelvin C. Cepeda together with reporters Kate Morrissey and Lauryn Schroeder worked together multi-part series that explores the asylum system and whether it is working the way it was intended. The administration has already remade much of the asylum system, claiming it is rife with abuse and overwhelmed with undeserving claims. Its policies include making asylum-seekers wait in Mexico while their claims are heard in U.S. court and denying asylum to anyone on the Mexican border who passes through another country on the way to the U.S. without first seeking protection there. An asylum seeker’s chances at protection hinge on numerous factors that often seem arbitrary, from location to nationality to individual judge assigned, according to a Union-Tribune analysis of immigration court records. For the world’s most vulnerable, protection in the United States has all but disappeared. Welcome to: ASYLUM LOTTERY
