Two appeals courts today ruled against the Trump administration's policy, mandating that anyone who enters the country without legal status be placed in detention. As NPR's Hemenibu Steele reports, the issues expected to go to the Supreme Court. The decisions out of the ninth circuit and seventh circuit courts of appeals argue that the administration is misunderstanding decades-old immigration law.
The Trump administration wants anyone who entered the country illegally to be in immigration detention while their cases play out in immigration court. Under previous administrations, someone with autochriminal record would generally be allowed to seek a bond hearing while their immigration case was pending. The approach has resulted in the prolonged detention of people who, in some cases, have been
living in the U.S. for decades and a record number of people in detention.
“The Supreme Court is expected to take up the issue in its next term.”
