"Biden's Controversial Asylum Restrictions Temporarily Upheld by Appeals Court"

The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has granted a temporary stay on a rule restricting asylum at the southern border, allowing it to remain in place while legal battles continue. The Biden administration argued that the rule is crucial for maintaining order at the U.S.-Mexico border. The rule makes it difficult for people to be granted asylum unless they first seek protection in a country they're traveling through or apply online. The decision by the appeals court panel, with two judges ruling in favor and one dissenting, means that the case will be expedited for a hearing in mid-September.
