Top court hears asylum case
Bangkok Post
|March 26, 2026
The US Supreme Court on Tuesday examined a former policy of turning away migrants before they crossed the US-Mexico border to present an asylum claim.
-
The policy, known as “metering”, has not been in place since 2021, but President Donald Trump is seeking a ruling validating it as legal if it may be reinstated.
The policy allowed federal US agents on the Mexican side of the US-Mexico border to turn away potential asylum seekers before they reached US soil.
The Immigration and Nationality Act allows an “alien who is physically present in the United States or who arrives in the United States” to apply for asylum.
A divided appeals court ruled in 2024 that this applies to potential asylum seekers at ports of entry “whichever side of the border they are standing on.”
