Judiciary Overrules Trump Visa Ban
The main news reports the cancellation by a federal court in New York of the decision by former U.S. President Donald Trump's administration to suspend visa issuance procedures for citizens of 75 countries, including Afghanistan, Iran, Russia, and Somalia. The judiciary considered that the suspension policies exceeded the authority of the Secretary of State and violated U.S. immigration and nationality laws. It confirmed that these policies harm the authority of consular officials and undermine Congress's decisions regarding immigrant eligibility. This ruling invalidates a policy that was announced last November, which had restricted visa applications from citizens of those countries.
