Trans woman granted asylum by Supreme Court.

The US Supreme Court has ruled in favor of a transgender Guatemalan woman, Estrella Santos-Zacaria, who is fighting deportation on the grounds that she would face persecution if returned to her native country. Santos-Zacaria fled to the US after being raped as a young teenager and threatened with death because of her gender identity in a country that has targeted the LGBTQ+ community. The unanimous decision gives her another chance to argue that immigration officials were wrong to reject her bid to remain in the US.
