Immigration Equality Lauds Federal Judge’s Decision to Block Biden’s Illegal Asylum Ban
New York, NY (July 28, 2023) — On Tuesday, a federal judge in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California blocked the Biden administration’s asylum ban, concluding the policy contravenes a person’s statutory right to request asylum in the U.S. regardless of where they cross the border. He delayed the decision for two weeks to give the federal government time to appeal.
In 2021, the same judge enjoined the Trump administration’s “death to asylum” rule following a legal challenge by Immigration Equality and partner organizations.
