Supreme Court Reverses Asylum Metering

The Supreme Court just sided with the government in a 6-3 ruling that could revive daily asylum application limits at the U.S.-Mexico border — a controversial policy once used by both Obama and Trump administrations to control the flow of asylum seekers. Advocates fear it could force vulnerable people into dangerous waiting conditions, while the government insists it’s essential to manage a surge in claims. The Court’s majority, led by Justice Alito, argued that knocking on the border doesn’t count as “arriving,” while Justice Sotomayor’s fiery dissent warned the decision dims the Statue of Liberty’s promise of refuge — even prompting a rare on-the-spot rebuttal from Alito. This ruling adds fuel to a growing wave of immigration cases reshaping the nation’s border policy. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
