Supreme Court Greenlights Trump Administration to Reject Asylum Seekers at the Border
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration, allowing the rejection of asylum seekers at the U.S.-Mexico border before they enter U.S. soil, requiring them to wait in Mexico. The decision, supported by six of the nine justices, overturns a Ninth Circuit ruling that permitted rejected immigrants to apply for asylum while still in Mexico. The case, Mullin vs. Al Otro Lado, highlights the conflict between the Secretary of Homeland Security and a California-based organization assisting refugees. Dissenting justices warned that this ruling would lead to more dangers for those fleeing persecution. The case was argued on March 24, 2023.
