发帖数: 897 | 1 A federal judge has partially blocked an order President Donald Trump issued
in October suspending admission of refugees from 11 countries, most of
which are majority Muslim.
U.S. District Court Judge James Robart issued a nationwide preliminary
injunction Saturday afternoon that prevents the administration from halting
or diverting resources from refugee applications brought on behalf of family
members of immigrants already in the U.S.
The injunction does not provide relief for refugees who lack a "bona fide
relationship" with individuals, businesses or schools in the U.S.
The Seattle-based judge, who was appointed by President George W. Bush, said
Trump's October order violated provisions in immigration laws passed by
Congress governing criteria and procedures for admission of refugees.
"Congress set forth the specific statutory elements that individuals must
satisfy to be admitted as a refugee," Robart wrote in his 65-page order. "
Congress also specified criteria as to who would be excluded from the
definition ... By either prohibiting refugees from [the selected] countries
from participating in [the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program] or by grafting
on the additional requirement that refugees from [those] countries must also
'fulfill critical foreign policy interests' to qualify, the agencies
impermissibly redefine the term 'refugee.'"
Robart also said the policy changes Trump sought to impose should have been
published for notice and comment from the public before they were
implemented.
The Trump administration declined to publicly identify the countries
affected, but experts said they are Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Mali, North
Korea, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. All except for North
Korea and South Sudan are majority Muslim.
