Federal judge issues preliminary injunction blocking Trump asylum restrictions at southern border

A federal judge granted a preliminary injunction against the Trump administration’s latest move to widely restrict asylum for migrants coming to the southern border, according to court documents.

The American Civil Liberties Union, the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Center for Constitutional Rights have challenged the policy, saying it violates domestic and international law and the right of migrants to seek asylum in the U.S.“The court recognized, as it did with the first asylum ban, that the Trump administration was attempting an unlawful end run around asylum protections enacted by Congress,” ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt said after the ruling.

He has previously issued an injunction in another case involving asylum restrictions by President Donald Trump. In denying the request for the temporary restraining order, U.S. District Judge Timothy J. Kelly said the groups challenging the rule did not show that their work would be irreparably harmed if the policy moved forward, according to The Associated Press.

We need to amend our immigration laws & policies now! I stand with President Trump on this idea!!! I said that people should be able to apply from their own countries to a friend months ago. This would lessen the burden on our resources & staff at the border.

Didn't I just read this morning that a different fed judge agrees with the policy Are we now going to have many federal judge rulings ? Which one do we follow

👍🇺🇸

The Federal Judge is breaking the Law. People cant just waltz into OUR country. WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES. Not a federal judge Not a congressmen. YOU WORK FOR US WE DONT WORK FOR YOU. NO ONE SHOULD FEAR THEIR GOVERNMENT. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD FEAR THE PEOPLE

Here we goagain, another liberal, socialist leaning America hating federal judge! They can't retire fast enough.

Good they say they are after illegal immigrants but I don’t see any white illegals in cages or being harrassed. This is a smoke screen to cover up racist old aristocrats trying to cleanse American of non-white individuals

All this winning 😄

What is it, blocked or declined to block?

Go figure. The dirtbag was an Obama appointed judge. Well golly, an Obama judge!!! Good thing to know that a judge can enforce laws without being political or spend a life time being loyal to a political party.

Awesome, more illegal criminals running around America. And democrats celebrate. What the fuck is wrong with you people. 7 Americans slaughtered here in California by 19 illegals and a couple “refugees”. What kind of American is ok with this?

This is crazy. How many judges blocked Obozo?

We should start dropping off families at his doorstep to adopt and support on his dime .. Since he cares so much ..

This:

AWESOME Return the Judges...Let Asylum seekers apply

Thank god

👏👏👏👏👏♥️

This practice of a single federal district court judge unilaterally placing a nationwide injunction blocking the actions of the President of the United States is ridiculous.

POLITICO Playbook PM: Mueller gives impeachment crowd little to work withWe're at halftime. The House Judiciary Committee hearing with Mueller missed the mark for pro-impeachment Democrats — and people in the Capitol recognize that. Intel Committee is up next. More in Playbook PM: You probably wrote this piece three weeks ago. Missed the mark? It was a bullseye. Mueller came off as clueless. He clearly was doing nothing while his staff was running this investigation. No wonder he didn't want to testify, he couldn't be bothered to read the report. Disagree with the premise.
