Supreme Court Extends Relief for ‘Dreamers,’ Again Stumps Trump
It’s worth noting how often and how badly the Trump admin keeps losing in court on immigration issues. He just keeps letting that xenophobic streak color his policy goals. And those are patently hateful. Hell, the guy even gave Puerto Rico short shrift, and that’s (other than visitors) American citizens all.
The Supreme Court handed President Trump a significant defeat Monday, turning down the administration’s plea for a quick ruling on the president’s power to end special protections for so-called Dreamers.
The court’s decision not to immediately hear the administration’s appeal could keep in place a legal shield for nearly 700,000 young immigrants for the rest of this year, and perhaps longer.
