Ratification of Department Action

AGENCY: Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

ACTION: Ratification.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland Security is publishing notice of 
the Secretary of Homeland Security's ratification of a rule.

DATES: The ratification was signed on October 29, 2025 and relates back 
to the original date of the action that it ratifies.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Office of the General Counsel, DHS, 
Washington, DC 20528, (202) 282-9822.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 29, 2025, the Secretary of 
Homeland Security ratified the approval and issuance of the final rule 
titled ``Procedures for Asylum and Withholding of Removal; Credible 
Fear and Reasonable Fear Review,'' as well as the associated notice of 
proposed rulemaking. See 85 FR 80274 (Dec. 11, 2020); 85 FR 36264 (June 
15, 2020).
    DHS is now publishing the ratification in the Federal Register out 
of an abundance of caution. Neither the ratification nor the 
publication is a statement that the ratified action would be invalid 
absent the ratification, whether published or otherwise.

Joseph N. Mazzara,
Acting General Counsel, U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
