Trump asks Supreme Court to reinstate asylum ban during appeals -Grecia Jimenez

  Trump is trying to deny assylum to the central amerian immigrants seeking help, completely ignoring the law that any immigrant is eligible to apply for assylum regardless of how they entered the country. "These measures are designed to channel asylum seekers to ports of entry, where their claims can be processed in an orderly manner; deter unlawful and dangerous border crossings, and reduce the backlog of meritless asylum claims," the administration's emergency appeal says. "The measures will also assist the President in sensitive and ongoing diplomatic negotiations with Mexico and the Northern Triangle countries of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras."
  In the caravan of immigrants, there are sick mothers and children trying to escape poverty and ask for help only to be faced with closed doors. These are people, human beings deserving of sympathy. Even those who enter the U.S. legally face the long periods of waiting for their case to be acknowledged. Some of these cases are denied without being looked at and many of these immigrants are kept in detention centers for months waiting for assylum. No human being should be caged up and looked down upon while reaching for a helping hand. 
  This issue  can be compared to when Irish and German immgrants came to he U.S. escaping poverty and famne and they were let in. We also have to keep in mind that this was Native American land before it was ever even the 13 colonies. Many people compare the central american immigrants to white colonizers, but these have no relation due to the colonizers coming to kill, steal, enslave, and appropriate while the immigrants are just seeking help  and escape from their poverty-struck countries.
