US Supreme Court Allows Revival of Trump-Era Asylum Metering Policy at Border
The US Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to allow the Trump administration to potentially revive the 'metering' policy, which limits the number of asylum applications processed daily at the US-Mexico border. First used under Obama and expanded under Trump, the policy was ended by Biden in 2021. Supporters say it manages border capacity, while critics argue it creates unsafe conditions for migrants waiting in Mexico. The ruling also permits ending Temporary Protected Status for certain migrant groups, reflecting a broader shift in immigration enforcement.
