Federal Judge Blocks Trump Asylum Rule

A federal judge has blocked the government’s policies, originally implemented by Donald Trump, that created obstacles to asylum requests and canceled Temporary Protected Status (TPS) permits. The order, issued by Judge Nathaniel Gorton, provides temporary relief to thousands of immigrants with active work permits. The ruling will remain in effect until August 5th when the judge will decide if the suspension will continue.
