On May 8, 2019, President Trump signed Proclamation 9882, which restricted asylum eligibility for individuals entering the United States through the southern border who did not apply for protection in countries they transited through first. The proclamation established that asylum applicants could be denied entry unless they had sought protection in at least one country they passed through before reaching the U.S. border. The confirmed direct impact was that thousands of asylum seekers, particularly families from Central America, were denied asylum hearings and returned to their countries of origin or to transit countries without U.S. adjudication of their claims.

On November 9, 2018, President Trump signed Proclamation 10780, which suspended the entry of certain aliens arriving at or between U.S. ports of entry on the southern border and required asylum applicants to present themselves at official ports of entry. The proclamation effectively redirected asylum seekers away from between-port crossings, creating additional barriers to asylum processing. The confirmed effect was a reduction in asylum applications processed between ports and increased processing pressure at official ports of entry.
