EXCERPT:
A federal judge struck down a Trump administration immigration policy that tightened requirements for immigrants from dozens of countries seeking to enter or remain in the United States.
District Chief Judge John McConnell Jr. invalidated the policy in a sharply worded ruling that accused US Citizenship and Immigration Services of exceeding its legal authority and failing to follow required administrative procedures.
The policy was enacted after the shooting of two National Guard members and affected immigrants from 39 countries.
In his ruling, McConnell argued that the administration’s actions left immigrants facing uncertainty about their legal status and failed to comply with federal law.
