US EditionJudge skeptical of Trump administration argument that federal courts can’t review border declaration
- On January 20 in Washington, Judge Randolph Moss presided over a hearing concerning a legal challenge to President Trump's executive order that prohibits migrants from seeking asylum protections.
- The order followed Trump's declaration that the southern border situation constituted an invasion warranting suspension of migrants' physical entry, which the administration says courts cannot review.
- Migrant rights groups contend that immigration, even at higher levels, does not amount to an invasion and highlight that border crossings have decreased to rates not observed since August 2020, while urging the court to rule the order unlawful.
- The government calls the president's decision an "unreviewable political question," while advocates stress asylum rights are legally protected and denying them endangers people fleeing persecution.
- Judge Moss expressed skepticism about the administration's claims, requested more written legal arguments, and has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss the lawsuit.
