Security Bars and Processing; Delay of Effective Date

AGENCY: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Department of 
Homeland Security; Executive Office for Immigration Review, Department 
of Justice.

ACTION: Interim final rule with request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On December 23, 2020, the Department of Homeland Security 
(``DHS'') and the Department of Justice (``DOJ'') (collectively, ``the 
Departments'') published a final rule (``Security Bars rule''), to 
clarify that the ``danger to the security of the United States'' 
standard in the statutory bar to eligibility for asylum and withholding 
of removal encompasses certain emergency public health concerns and to 
make certain other changes. That rule was scheduled to take effect on 
January 22, 2021, but, as of January 21, 2021, the Departments delayed 
the rule's effective date for 60 days to March 22, 2021. The 
Departments subsequently further extended and delayed the rule's 
effective date to December 31, 2021. In this rule, the Departments are 
further extending and delaying the effective date of the Security Bars 
rule until December 31, 2022. The Departments are soliciting comments 
both on the extension until December 31, 2022, and whether the 
effective date of the Security Bars rule should be extended beyond that 
date.

DATES: Effective date: As of December 28, 2021, the effective date of 
the final rule published December 23, 2020, at 85 FR 84160, which was 
delayed January 25, 2021, at 86 FR 6847, and March 22, 2021, at 86 FR 
15069, is further delayed until December 31, 2022.
    Submission of public comments: Comments must be submitted on or 
before February 28, 2022.

II. Background and Basis for Delay of Effective Date

A. Background

    On December 23, 2020, the Departments published the Security Bars 
rule to amend existing regulations to clarify that in certain 
circumstances

[[Page 73616]]

there are ``reasonable grounds for regarding [an] alien as a danger to 
the security of the United States'' or ``reasonable grounds to believe 
that [an] alien is a danger to the security of the United States'' 
based on emergency public health concerns generated by a communicable 
disease, making the noncitizen ineligible to be granted asylum in the 
United States under section 208 of the Immigration and Nationality Act 
(``INA'' or ``the Act''), 8 U.S.C. 1158, or the protection of 
withholding of removal under the Act or subsequent regulations (because 
of the threat of torture). Security Bars and Processing, 85 FR 84160 
(Dec. 23, 2020). The rule was scheduled to take effect on January 22, 
2021.
    On January 20, 2021, the White House Chief of Staff issued a 
memorandum asking agencies to consider delaying, consistent with 
applicable law, the effective dates of any rules that had been 
published and not yet gone into effect, for the purpose of allowing the 
President's appointees and designees to review questions of fact, law, 
and policy raised by those regulations. See Memorandum for the Heads of 
Executive Departments and Agencies from Ronald A. Klain, Assistant to 
the President and Chief of Staff, Re: Regulatory Freeze Pending Review 
(Jan. 20, 2021), available at 86 FR 7424 (Jan. 28, 2021). As of January 
21, 2021, the Departments delayed the effective date of the Security 
Bars rule to March 22, 2021, and then further delayed the effective 
date of the Security Bars rule to December 31, 2021, consistent with 
that memorandum and a preliminary injunction in place with respect to a 
related rule, as discussed below. See Security Bars and Processing; 
Delay of Effective Date, 86 FR 6847 (Jan. 25, 2021); Security Bars and 
Processing; Delay of Effective Date, 86 FR 15069 (Mar. 22, 2021).

B. Reason for Delay

    As stated in the Security Bars and Processing; Delay of Effective 
Date interim final rule (``March Security Bars Delay IFR'') published 
on March 22, 2021, the Departments had good cause to delay the Security 
Bars rule's effective date further without advance notice and comment 
because implementation of the Security Bars rule was infeasible due to 
a preliminary injunction against a related rule. See 86 FR at 15070. 
Specifically, the Security Bars rule relies on revisions to the 
Departments' regulations previously made on December 11, 2020, by a 
separate joint rule, Procedures for Asylum and Withholding of Removal; 
Credible Fear and Reasonable Fear Review (``Global Asylum final 
rule'').\1\ The Global Asylum final rule was scheduled to become 
effective before the Security Bars rule. However, on January 8, 2021, 
14 days prior to the effective date of the Security Bars rule, in the 
case of Pangea Legal Services v. Department of Homeland Security 
(``Pangea II''), a district court preliminarily enjoined the 
Departments ``from implementing, enforcing, or applying the [Global 
Asylum final] rule . . . or any related policies or procedures.'' \2\ 
The preliminary injunction remains in place. Thus, implementation of 
the Security Bars rule continues to be infeasible.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See 85 FR 80274 (Dec. 11, 2020).
    \2\ Pangea Legal Servs. v. U.S. Dep't of Homeland Sec., 512 F. 
Supp. 3d 966, 977 (N.D. Cal. 2021). By issuing this rule to further 
extend and delay the effective date of the Security Bars rule, the 
Departments are not indicating a position on the outcome thus far in 
Pangea II.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Specifically, the Security Bars rule relies upon the regulatory 
framework that was established in the Global Asylum final rule in 
applying bars to asylum eligibility and withholding of removal during 
credible fear screenings.\3\ On July 9, 2020, the Departments published 
a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for the Security Bars rule (``Security 
Bars NPRM''), which proposed regulatory text instructing adjudicators 
to apply the security bars to asylum eligibility and withholding of 
removal during credible fear screenings.\4\ This proposal would have 
modified the then-existing regulatory framework instructing that 
evidence that the individual is, or may be, subject to a bar to asylum 
eligibility or withholding of removal, including the ``danger to the 
security of the United States'' bars underlying the Security Bars rule, 
does not have an impact on a credible fear determination.\5\ The 
Security Bars NPRM justified this modification as necessary to allow 
DHS to quickly remove individuals covered by the security bars to 
asylum eligibility and withholding of removal, rather than sending 
potentially barred individuals to full removal proceedings pursuant to 
section 240 of the INA, 8 U.S.C. 1229a (``section 240 removal 
proceedings''), for consideration of further relief or protection from 
removal before an immigration judge, which can take months or even 
years.\6\ The Security Bars NPRM further explained that applying the 
security bars during credible fear screenings was necessary to reduce 
health and safety dangers to both the public at large and DHS 
officials.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See, e.g., 85 FR at 84176 (``As noted, the [Security Bars] 
final rule is not, as the NPRM proposed, modifying the regulatory 
framework to apply the danger to the security of the United States 
bars at the credible fear stage because, in the interim between the 
NPRM and the final rule, the [Global Asylum final rule] did so for 
all of the bars to eligibility for asylum and withholding of 
removal.''); id. at 84189 (describing changes made in the Security 
Bars rule ``to certain regulatory provisions not addressed in the 
proposed rule as necessitated by the intervening promulgation of the 
[Global Asylum final] Rule'').
    \4\ Security Bars and Processing, 85 FR 41201, 41216-18 (July 9, 
2020).
    \5\ See id. at 41207.
    \6\ Id. at 41210-12.
    \7\ Id. at 41210.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 11, 2020, while the Departments were reviewing the 
comments submitted in response to the Security Bars NPRM, the Global 
Asylum final rule was published.\8\ The Global Asylum final rule 
changed the general practice described above to apply all bars to 
asylum eligibility and withholding of removal during credible fear 
screenings.\9\ Most relevant, the Global Asylum final rule changed the 
then-existing regulatory framework described above, in which evidence 
of a bar to asylum eligibility or withholding of removal does not have 
any impact on a credible fear determination (even though the bars would 
be part of the ultimate adjudication of asylum eligibility or 
withholding of removal before the Executive Office of Immigration 
Review), to a framework that instead required asylum officers to apply 
all of the bars to asylum eligibility or withholding of removal during 
credible fear screenings.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Id. at 80391.
    \10\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 23, 2020, the Security Bars rule was published. In this 
final rule, the Departments revised the text from the Security Bars 
NPRM to explicitly rely on the intervening changes made by the Global 
Asylum final rule.\11\ As a result, the regulatory text of significant 
portions of the Security Bars rule relies upon and repeats broader 
regulatory text established by the Global Asylum final rule, such as 
applying bars to asylum eligibility and withholding of removal during 
credible fear screenings.\12\ The Security Bars rule assumed that the 
Global Asylum final rule would be in effect, and, therefore, the 
Security Bars rule did not make additional changes to the credible fear 
framework.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 85 FR at 84174-77.
    \12\ See, e.g., id. at 84194-98 (revising 8 CFR 208.30, 235.6, 
1208.30, and 1235.6, among other provisions); accord 85 FR at 80390-
80401 (same).
    \13\ See 85 FR at 84175 (``The Departments note that the final 
rule is not, as the NPRM proposed, modifying the regulatory 
framework to apply the danger to the security of the United States 
bars at the credible fear stage. In the interim between the NPRM and 
the final rule, the Global Asylum final rule did so for bars to 
eligibility for asylum and withholding of removal.'').

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 73617]]

    As a result of the interplay between the two rules, implementation 
of the Security Bars rule would risk violating the injunction against 
the application, implementation, or enforcement of the Global Asylum 
final rule and any related policies or procedures. Effective 
implementation of the Security Bars rule relies on the application of 
the asylum and withholding of removal bars to eligibility at the 
credible fear screening stage, as established by the Global Asylum 
final rule.\14\ Accordingly, implementing the Security Bars rule--and 
effectively reinserting or relying upon regulatory provisions that the 
Pangea II court has enjoined--may potentially violate the court's 
injunction. In other words, the court's injunction in Pangea II makes 
it impermissible under the current regulatory framework to apply the 
bars to asylum eligibility and withholding of removal outlined in the 
Security Bars rule to noncitizens in the credible fear screening 
process. Given these circumstances, the Departments believe that the 
Security Bars rule, which could not be implemented as designed, would 
not necessarily provide the framework for achieving its intended goals.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ As the Departments explained in the Security Bars rule, the 
intervening Global Asylum final rule made changes to the credible 
fear screening framework to provide that noncitizens receiving 
positive credible fear determinations be placed in asylum-and-
withholding only proceedings, rather than section 240 removal 
proceedings. See 85 FR at 84188. The Security Bars rule relied upon 
this change made in the Global Asylum final rule to provide that 
noncitizens who receive positive credible fear determinations under 
the Security Bars rule will be placed in such asylum-and-withholding 
only proceedings rather than section 240 removal proceedings, unless 
they are removed to third countries. See id. The Security Bars rule 
also assumes that the Departments are using the reasonable 
possibility of persecution or torture standards for withholding of 
removal claims in the credible fear screening context, which is also 
a change that was made in the Global Asylum final rule. See id. at 
84188, 84191.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Accordingly, the Departments are further extending and delaying the 
effective date of the Security Bars rule until December 31, 2022, 
because of the aforementioned litigation. If the injunction against 
implementation of the Global Asylum final rule is lifted before 
December 31, 2022, the Departments can revise the effective date of the 
Security Bars rule as needed to account for this change. Similarly, if 
the injunction remains in effect on that date, the Departments may 
delay the effective date of the Security Bars rule further. The 
Departments have chosen this time-limited delay, rather than an 
indefinite delay, due to the preliminary nature of the injunction.

C. Future Rulemaking To Modify or Rescind Security Bars Rule

    The Departments are reviewing and reconsidering the Security Bars 
rule in light of the Administration's policies of ensuring the safe and 
orderly reception and processing of asylum seekers consistent with 
public health and safety, strengthening the asylum system, and removing 
barriers that impede access to immigration benefits, with the 
additional context of the complex relationship between the Global 
Asylum final rule and the Security Bars rule, and the court's 
injunction in Pangea II.\15\ The Departments are reevaluating whether 
the Security Bars rule provides the most appropriate and effective 
framework for achieving its goals of mitigating the spread of 
communicable diseases, including COVID-19, among certain noncitizens in 
the credible fear screening process, as well as DHS personnel and the 
public. The Departments plan to publish a separate NPRM to solicit 
public comments on whether to modify or rescind the Security Bars 
rule.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ See, e.g., Executive Order 14010 of February 2, 2021, 
Creating a Comprehensive Regional Framework to Address the Causes of 
Migration, to Manage Migration Throughout North and Central America, 
and to Provide Safe and Orderly Processing of Asylum Seekers at the 
United States Border, 86 FR 8267 (Feb. 5, 2021); Executive Order 
14012 of February 2, 2021, Restoring Faith in Our Legal Immigration 
Systems and Strengthening Integration and Inclusion Efforts for New 
Americans, 86 FR 8277 (Feb. 5, 2021).
    \16\ See Executive Office of the President, Office of Management 
and Budget, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Spring 
2021 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions, Bars to 
Asylum Eligibility and Procedures, https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/eAgendaViewRule?pubId=202104&RIN=1615-AC69 (last visited Dec. 14, 
2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the March Security Bars Delay IFR, the Departments explained 
that they were considering amending or rescinding the Security Bars 
rule and noted that they may extend the delay in its effective date 
beyond December 31, 2021, if the injunction remained in effect at the 
time. 86 FR at 15071. The Departments sought public comments on whether 
the Security Bars rule should be revised or revoked and information on 
alternative approaches that may achieve the best public health outcome 
consistent with the Administration's immigration policy goals.\17\ The 
Departments received 66 comments in response to the March Security Bars 
Delay IFR, which the Departments would address in any separate future 
rulemaking to modify or rescind the Security Bars rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See 86 FR at 15069, 15071.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Departments recognize that the COVID-19 public health emergency 
is highly dynamic and continues to pose health and safety risks for 
noncitizens held in congregate settings, particularly at holding and 
detention facilities, agency personnel, and the public.\18\ As the 
COVID-19 public health emergency has continued to evolve, the 
Departments continue to reconsider and reevaluate how best to mitigate 
the spread of COVID-19 and which actions are most appropriate in 
accordance with their legal authorities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ See Public Health Reassessment and Order Suspending the 
Right to Introduce Certain Persons from Countries Where a 
Quarantinable Communicable Disease Exists, 86 FR 42828, 42830, 
42833, 42835-36 (Aug. 5, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Request for Comment on Further Delay of the Effective Date of the 
Security Bars Rule

    The Departments continue to welcome data, views, and information 
regarding the effective date of the Security Bars rule. The Departments 
also are soliciting comments on whether the effective date should be 
extended beyond December 31, 2022, if the Pangea II injunction is still 
in effect or if other intervening events occur.

IV. Regulatory Requirements

A. Administrative Procedure Act

    Under the Administrative Procedure Act (``APA''), agencies are not 
required to engage in pre-promulgation notice-and-comment under 5 
U.S.C. 553(b) and (c) when an agency ``for good cause finds . . . that 
notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or 
contrary to the public interest.'' 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B). As stated above, 
the Departments have determined that the good cause exception applies 
to this rule because implementation of the Security Bars rule has not 
been--and continues to not be--feasible due to a preliminary injunction 
against a related rule. As explained above, the Security Bars rule's 
reliance upon--and interplay with--the Global Asylum final rule means 
that implementation of the Security Bars rule would risk violating the 
Pangea II injunction. The preliminary injunction remains in place. It 
is therefore impractical and unnecessary for the Departments to provide 
notice and an opportunity to comment, because any comments received 
cannot and will not affect the injunction underlying the need for 
delay. See EME Homer City Generation, L.P. v. E.P.A., 795 F.3d 118, 
134-35

[[Page 73618]]

(D.C. Cir. 2015) (explaining that the good cause exception applied 
because ``commentators could not have said anything during a notice and 
comment period that would have changed'' the agency's response to a 
judicial decision). The Departments notified the public in March that 
``if the injunction remains in effect on December 31, [2021,] the 
Departments may delay the effective date of the Security Bars rule 
further.'' 86 FR at 15071.\19\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ In response to the March Security Bars Delay IFR, the 
Departments received one comment objecting to a further delay. The 
commenter asserted that implementation was needed to mitigate the 
risk of the potential spread of deadly communicable diseases by 
noncitizens from countries where the disease was prevalent. As 
noted, however, agencies have been enjoined from applying bars to 
asylum eligibility and withholding of removal when making a credible 
fear determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Executive Order 12866 and Executive Order 13563

    Executive Orders 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review) and 13563 
(Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review) direct agencies to assess 
the costs, benefits, and transfers of available alternatives, and, if 
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize 
net benefits, including potential economic, environmental, public 
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity. Executive 
Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and 
benefits, reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and promoting flexibility. 
Pursuant to Executive Order 12866, the Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs of the Office of Management and Budget determined 
that this rule is ``significant'' under Executive Order 12866 and has 
reviewed this regulation.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Departments have reviewed this rule in accordance with the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., and have determined 
that this rule to further delay the effective date of the Security Bars 
rule (85 FR 84160) will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities. Neither the Security Bars rule, 
nor this rule to delay its effective date, regulate ``small entities'' 
as that term is defined in 5 U.S.C. 601(6). Only individuals, rather 
than entities, are eligible to apply for asylum and related forms of 
relief, and only individuals are placed in immigration proceedings.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995

    This rule will not result in the expenditure by state, local, and 
tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector, of $100 
million or more in any one year, and it will not significantly or 
uniquely affect small governments. Therefore, no actions are deemed 
necessary under the provisions of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 
1995.

E. Congressional Review Act

    This rule is not a major rule as defined by section 804 of the 
Congressional Review Act (``CRA''). 5 U.S.C. 804. This rule will not 
result in an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more; a 
major increase in costs or prices; or significant adverse effects on 
competition, employment, investment, productivity, innovation, or on 
the ability of United States-based enterprises to compete with foreign 
based enterprises in domestic and export markets. The Departments have 
complied with the CRA's reporting requirements and have sent this rule 
to Congress and to the Comptroller General as required by 5 U.S.C. 
801(a)(1).

F. Executive Order 13132 (Federalism)

    This rule will not have substantial direct effects on the States, 
on the relationship between the National Government and the States, or 
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various 
levels of government. Therefore, in accordance with section 6 of 
Executive Order 13132, the Departments believe that this rule will not 
have sufficient federalism implications to warrant the preparation of a 
federalism summary impact statement.

G. Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice Reform)

    This rule meets the applicable standards set forth in section 3(a) 
and 3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988.

H. Paperwork Reduction Act

    This rule does not create new, or revisions to existing, 
``collection[s] of information'' as that term is defined under the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 
35, and its implementing regulations, 5 CFR part 1320.

I. Executive Order 13175 (Consultation and Coordination With Indian 
Tribal Governments)

    This rule does not have ``tribal implications'' because it does not 
have substantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes, on the 
relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on 
the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal 
Government and Indian tribes. Accordingly, Executive Order 13175 
(Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments) requires 
no further agency action or analysis.
