Supreme Court to Decide on Asylum Policy at Border

The Supreme Court is set to decide on the governments power to limit asylum claims at the U.S.-Mexico border, focusing on the metering policy that allows immigration officials to turn away asylum seekers. This policy, which began under Obama and was formalized under Trump, is being challenged by an advocacy group. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that federal law requires border agents to inspect all asylum seekers who arrive at designated crossings, even if they havent physically stepped into the U.S. yet. The Trump administration argues that arrive in means actually entering a location. The Supreme Courts decision, expected by the end of June, could significantly impact how asylum claims are handled at the border. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
