US judge blocks Trump asylum ban at US-Mexico border, says he exceeded authority
- On July 3, a federal judge in Washington determined that President Trump's January 20 directive halting asylum claims at the southern border is illegal.
- The order followed Trump's declaration of a southern border 'invasion' and suspension of migrant entry and asylum access, which the judge said exceeded presidential authority.
- The judge emphasized that the president lacks the authority under the Constitution and immigration laws to override asylum protections established by Congress and international agreements.
- The White House reported 6,070 Border Patrol arrests in June 2024, down 30% from May, setting a pace for the lowest annual arrest rate since 1966 at the border.
- Judge Randolph Moss has ruled the Trump administration’s policy suspending asylum at the southern border unlawful, with his injunction scheduled to begin on July 16. However, enforcement is temporarily delayed for two weeks to allow time for an appeal, marking a major legal obstacle to the immigration restrictions.
