asylum policy
Sanctuary admission standards
Asylum policy refers to a government's rules and procedures for handling requests from foreigners seeking refuge from persecution in their home countries.
These policies determine who qualifies for protection, how applications are processed, and what rights applicants have while awaiting decisions.
Asylum policy is frequently contested in political debate: The administration's asylum policy has drawn criticism from both sides.
