WASHINGTON 鈥 The Supreme Court granted the Trump administration鈥檚 request to allow the latest asylum ban to take effect as the case is litigated. The ban seeks to categorically deny asylum to anyone at the southern border who had transited through a third country en route to the United States, with very limited exceptions.

The American Civil Liberties Union, Southern Poverty Law Center, and Center for Constitutional Rights are challenging the policy.

老澳门开奖结果 attorney Lee Gelernt had this reaction to today鈥檚 Supreme Court order: 鈥淭his is just a temporary step, and we鈥檙e hopeful we鈥檒l prevail at the end of the day. The lives of thousands of families are at stake.鈥
