Trump’s policy of forcing asylum seekers to wait in Mexico has been blocked by a federal judge
In January, the Trump administration introduced a new policy of returning Central American migrants to Mexico while they wait for their asylum cases to be processed.by Judge Richard Seeborg in San Francisco, who found that the statute that gives the Department of Homeland Security the authority to return “aliens” to another territory “cannot be read to apply” to these asylum seekers.
The ruling is the latest in a string of blows to the Trump administration’s attempts at sweeping immigration policies: A series of court rulings have blocked the travel ban, a ban on asylum for those who crossed the border without authorization, and the repeal of DACA, among others.The 27 remaining members of the European Unionor face a long extension so as to not disrupt the workings of the EU.
According to an EU memo, if Britain’s parliament can pass a withdrawal agreement by April 12 — a highly unlikely scenario — Brexit would be delayed until May 22. However, if there is no deal, EU members will consider a 9- or 12-month extension, until Dec. 31, 2019, or March 31, 2020.
