UN CERD grills US on immigration policy after saying it’s “deeply disturbed” by hostile rhetoric toward migrants and asylum seekers. Background: UN body enforcing ICERD.
The UN's CERD committee urged the US to suspend enforcement near sensitive sites and address racial discrimination. While non-binding, the decision highlights concerns over racial profiling, hate speech, and treatment of migrants, with specific criticism of rhetoric from former President Trump. The US dismisses the report as biased.
