Liberal Activist Judge Halts Another Sensible Immigration Policy
If you look up the phrase “activist judge†in the liberal lexicon, one of the names that will no doubt appear at the top of the list is Richard Seeborg, a federal district court judge in San Francisco appointed by President Barack Obama.
Earlier this month, Seeborg issued a nationwide preliminary injunction against the Trump administration’s sensible asylum policy. This isn’t Seeborg’s first act of judicial activism: He is also the judge who issued a similar injunction against reinstating a citizenship question on the U.S. census based on the claim that to do so would violate the Constitution. That case is now before the U.S. Supreme Court.
When it comes to judge shopping, it is no wonder liberal advocacy groups keep going to his courtroom.
