A federal appeals court has temporarily halted a major Trump administration policy to make asylum seekers wait in Mexico while their cases wind through U.S. immigration courts.
A panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco ruled Friday in a 2-1 vote to put on hold the policy that furthered President Donald Trump’s asylum crackdown.
The “Remain in Mexico” policy – known officially as “Migrant Protection Protocols” - took effect in January 2019 in San Diego and has spread across the border. Nearly 60,000 people have been sent back since the policy began.
