Freedom of Information Act Request Regarding Asylum Negotiations Between the U.S. and Guatemala

The American Immigration Council filed Freedom of Information Act requests with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of State (DOS) seeking information regarding the signing of an "Asylum Cooperative Agreement" with Guatemala.

The requests seek information about the signing of this agreement, as well as the process by which the U.S. government will evaluate the Guatemalan asylum system prior to sending asylum seekers to that country.
