Federal Judge Strikes Down Trump's Visa Ban
The Pure Report account · 8 sources · as of Aug 23, 06:46 UTC
A federal judge struck down the Trump administration’s freeze on immigrant visas from 75 countries. The judge ruled that Secretary of State Marco Rubio exceeded his authority by issuing the policy, which "runs afoul" of the Immigration and Nationality Act by mandating "the refusal of visas to eligible applicants without any basis in law." The indefinite pause affected nationals of countries in every corner of the globe and ran afoul of antidiscrimination protections.
