Supreme Court Hands Trump Immigration Victory, Allows Enforcement of "Remain in Mexico" Policy
The Federalist ^ | 03/11/20 | Steve Straub

The Supreme Court has handed President Trump a victory, albeit a temporary one, by allowing the administration to enforce the “remain in Mexico” policy.

Via The Hill:

The justices will allow the “Remain in Mexico” policy to continue while the administration appeals a lower court ruling which deemed the program illegal and ordered a suspension that was scheduled to take effect tomorrow.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor was the only justice to publicly dissent from the decision to allow the policy to continue.

Known officially as Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), the policy aims to curb entry into the U.S. by asylum-seekers, many of whom are Central American migrants. More than 60,000 asylum-seekers have been barred from entry since the program was implemented just over a year ago, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The program has been used to “process tens of thousands of aliens applying for asylum … without the need to detain the applicants in the United States during the weeks and months it takes to process their applications,” read a court filing that DHS submitted to the justices last week.

While not a guarantee by any means the fact that Sotomayor was the only justice who publicly dissented from the decision bodes well for the Trump Administration when the case is finally heard.

Because she’s a lowlife racist not worthy to be on that bench. An Obama special.
