The U.S. Supreme Court and a federal district court in California ruled recently on a number of Trump administration immigration policies. The Supreme Court today allowed the government to terminate temporary legal protections for thousands of Haitians and Syrians. The court also today ruled that the government may legally turn back asylum seekers before they physically enter the country. The policy, called metering, began under former President Barack Obama but officially was rescinded by the Biden administration in 2021. In addition, earlier this week, the court made it easier this week for the government to remove green card holders who commit crimes. SCOTUSblog reports on these three decisions. In addition, a federal judge in California has issued a nationwide ban on the arrest of immigrants going to and from immigration hearings at courthouses. Reuters has more on that ruling.
