Many of the over 8,000 people waiting at the Tijuana-San Ysidro border may now be given asylum according to a ruling on Tuesday.
In July the Trump Administration put an asylum ban into effect, denying people seeking asylum who had traveled through another country if they hadn’t registered in any of the countries they had gone through to get to the border.
On Tuesday U.S. District Judge Cynthia Bashant ruled in favor of those seeking asylum that the ban does not apply to anyone who appeared at a U.S. border crossing before the Trump Administrations announcement in July.
