Court Blocks Trump Asylum Border Ban

An appeals court has blocked President Trump's border suspending asylum applications at the border.

The ruling will bring new hope to those seeking asylum in San Ysidro, which could potentially allow the process to resume.

However, some advocates say they are doubtful the administration will uphold the court's ruling.

"The general sense from people on the ground is that they are under attack, that people who are vulnerable … should be fearing the steps that the government has been taking against them," says Pedro Rios, an immigration advocate and director of the American Friends Service Committee, speaking with reporting partner 10 News. “A lot of people still disbelieve that the Trump administration will follow the law and follow this decision."
