#CBP justified the rollback by stating in the memo–titled Rescission of Legacy Policies Related to Care & Custody–the policies were “obsolete” & “misaligned” w/the agency’s current enforcement priorities.

As the news spread via #Beijing #News & #Weibo, the government started a major censorship campaign.

#Foodsecurity is a major reason for #socialunrest in China
