 We write to provide the Court a status update concerning the Departments of Homeland 
Security and Justice’s review of the rules at issue in these cases, consistent with the Court’s order 
issued June 24, 2022, keeping these cases in abeyance pending that review.  
The Departments continue to report they have both indicated in the Unified Agenda of 
Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions-Spring 2022 that they preliminarily intend to modify 
or rescind the two rules at issue in these cases as part of the review required under Executive Order 
14,010, 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 Fed. Reg. 8267 (Feb. 5, 2021). The 
review remains ongoing. The Departments will submit another status report within 90 days of this 
filing with further updates about the status of the review and the rulemaking process.
