Attorney General William Barr makes a major reversal in ruling some asylum seekers could be held indefinitely
The decision means the Department of Homeland Security alone will have the discretion to decide whether to release immigrants who crossed the border illegally and later claimed asylum. The ruling effectively blocks concerted efforts by immigration lawyers and immigrant rights advocates to push for bond hearings for detained asylum-seekers.
"This is the Trump administration's latest assault on people fleeing persecution and seeking refuge in the United States," Jadwat said in a statement."Our Constitution does not allow the government to lock up asylum seekers without basic due process. We'll see the administration in court.
