After temporarily blocking and unblocking the "Remain in Mexico" policy, a federal appeals court said it will in its own jurisdiction halt the immigration policy next week to make asylum-seekers wait in Mexico for their court hearings in the U.S.
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco said Wednesday that it would block the "Remain in Mexico" policy in Arizona and California, the two border states where its authority extends.
The judges said the policy will no longer be in effect on Mexico’s border with California and Arizona as of March 12. The three-judge panel did not extend its decision to include federal court circuits in two other border states -- New Mexico and Texas -- as it originally had last week.

More fodder for the Trump 2020 campaign.
Close the border crossings into those states. Hell, close em all, but hit those two tomorrow to make the point.
And have ICE dump every illegal they can find on the sidewalk in front of those judges houses.
Ignore them. They do not have jurisdiction over national security or defense. Both apply. Throw in virus containment as well.
So what is the response by Trump? Ask for a ruling by the full court? Appeal to the Supremes?
Bus ‘em to Texas and throw them over the border.
Open that door wide and invite all of the corona carriers right into your living rooms.
Screw the stupid courts . Ignore them. They can all go pound sand.
Asylum laws are based on international agreements.
Those agreements stipulate that an asylee must claim asylum in the FIRST COUNTRY he passes through after leaving his own country.
In other words, a person seeking asylum cannot “country shop.”
I don't know if Mexico has signed those agreements.
I do know that most or all of the other Central American countries have NOT signed the agreements.
Europe has signed the agreements, but they are too cowardly to enforce the “first country” rule. That is what allows Turkey dictator Erdogan to blackmail the wealthy European countries with mass releases of immigrants.
Trump has the statutory authority (INA 1952) to completely shut the southern border.
However, Trump has made it clear that he will never seriously use or defend that authority.
Mexico signed that UN agreement-I read about it last year. IIRC, USA did NOT sign the agreement.
If the USA did not sign the agreement, what is the basis for the lawsuit and the Court decision?
Do we have Congressional laws that dictate ALL asylum seekers must be allowed into the country, given work permits, and given eligibility for government welfare services until their case is fully adjudicated?
First time I heard about that.
and how is this not sedition?!
Can’t the judges go to Wuhan for their “humanitarian” work...?
“Bus ‘em to Texas and throw them over the border.”
Great plan.
WHY ARE WE ALLOWING CITIZENS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES
WHO ENTER US ILLEGALLY GRANT THEM RIGHTS
THAT THEIR COUNTRY DENY US HAVING
WHEN WE ENTER THEIRS LEGALLY TO VISIT OR RETIRE ???
The issue of sovereignty should not be allowed to get twisted into being propagandized as “White Nationalism”. Use of that term is usually directed when the immigration issue is brought up to devalue of the protections an American citizen have by being one. When allowing the hordes illegally entering the US through the Mexican border avoid enforcing the reciprocal 2nd class treatment that American citizens get while legally residing in Mexico which of course also includes denial of voting privileges..
Today’s so called democrats insist Americans must allow illegals storm in here by the hundreds of thousands despite their cost to us of billion$ in tax dollars,which is never enough. Tax money that should be going to our citizens for their sustenance,health,education,and housing even infrastructure needs. But Americans must do the tax flagellating punishment because we’re the very rich United States and must divert those billion$ to fill the needs of those poor illegals plus give them the right to vote. Sustained by our tax money which our children’s children if not aborted will be paying for.?
Besides flooding the labor market with cheap labor which reduces job opportunities for American citizens in a diminishing base. Highly infectious communicable diseases are also pouring through this uncontrolled border creating serious health problems.
This destructive utopian Mexican open border approach of even considering granting those who enter the US illegally through it. Entitlement to all benefits way beyond those of what Mexicans give to our citizens in Mexico destroys the value of an American citizenship. It is being promoted by the name callers in socialist circles known as the democrat party as well some republicans who use such terms as “nativist” promoting racial division .
What we should be doing is taking a very very hard look at our relationship with Mexico along with trade and its myriad miss treatment of Americans as 3rd class citizens and its claims on American territory . There is no doubt there are hundreds of complaints, if not thousands, from American citizens who have retired there. Along with travelers running to American consulates about conditions that are going unreported because of this Mexican policy
Then just close the damned border until the SCOTUS gets these faggot judges under control.
Exactly, use the Coronavirus as the excuse to close the border.
