WASHINGTON – A divided Supreme Court on Tuesday required President Joe Biden’s administration to reinstate a controversial immigration policy that forces migrants to wait in Mexico while U.S. officials process their asylum claims.
Biden asked the Supreme Court to intervene after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit based in New Orleans ruled his administration improperly halted the Trump-era immigration policy shortly after his inauguration. Republican attorneys general in Texas and Missouri sued in April to reinstate the program.
A conservative majority of the high court said in a brief order Tuesday night that the Biden administration failed to demonstrate the decision to end the program was not “arbitrary and capricious.” The court’s three liberal associate justices, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, would have allowed the administration to continue its suspension of the program.
The White House and the Justice Department declined to comment.
Hooray, hooray. He’s done nothing but illegal crap since he’s been in office. Get him out, now!!!!
Trump’s policy was based on good logic and safety. Biden’s attempt to derail it is based on frank anti-Trump policy, which will be the hallmark of his time in the White House.
FINISH THE DAMN WALL !!!!! Deport ALL Illegals Biden let in our country !!!!!
