The Trump administration says it has begun restricting asylum claims on the southern border in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling.
Trump administration officials say they have started to implement a new policy that effectively denies asylum to most migrants at the Southern border, in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling on the policy.
The new rules deny asylum to anyone coming to the U.S.-Mexico border who has not already sought the protection first in another country. Most asylum seekers pass an initial screening called a “credible fear” interview. Under the new policy, they would fail the test unless they sought asylum in at least one country they traveled through and were deniedThe U.S. Supreme Court’s clearing of the way for the Trump administration to deny nearly all asylum claims from Central Americans is being denounced by immigration advocates as a “death sentence” for migrants trying to escape poverty and violence.
