Supreme Court Narrows Asylum Access

The Supreme Court just handed down a major ruling that reshapes asylum rules at the U.S.-Mexico border—people showing up at official ports of entry in Mexico can now be turned away, since they’re not legally considered to have “arrived” in the U.S. until they cross into American territory. The 6-3 decision, backed by conservative justices, aligns with the previous administration’s stance, while Justice Sotomayor’s dissent warns it closes the door on persecuted refugees and undermines Congress’s refugee protections. This sets a new precedent: asylum seekers must physically enter U.S. soil to trigger legal protections, even if they’re at a border crossing.
