US EditionJudge Blocks Trump’s Asylum Ban at Southern Border
- On July 3, U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss of the District of Columbia finalized a ruling that blocks President Trump's January 20 proclamation which sought to prevent migrants crossing the southern border from seeking asylum.
- The ruling followed a lawsuit by immigration groups who argued the proclamation, which declared an invasion and halted asylum claims outside official ports, exceeded presidential authority.
- Judge Moss wrote that neither the Immigration and Nationality Act nor the Constitution gave the president the power to override asylum protections or immigration procedures.
- Judge Moss ruled that neither the Immigration and Nationality Act nor the Constitution provides the President or his delegates with the broad powers claimed in the Proclamation, and he approved certification of a class of affected immigrants.
- The ruling blocks Trump's asylum ban effective July 16, with the administration granted a 14-day appeal window, signaling ongoing legal conflict over border enforcement policies.
