Judge Strikes Down Trump Visa Ban | Los Angeles News
Description
A federal judge in New York has just overturned a Trump-era visa ban targeting 75 countries, calling it unlawful and overreach — the policy had blocked entry based on nationality, falsely claiming immigrants from nations like Afghanistan, Iran, and Somalia were more likely to become “public charges.” The ruling, by Judge Jeannette Vargas, reaffirmed that visa decisions must follow established legal criteria, not blanket nationalities. The case, brought by nonprofits and individuals affected by the ban, celebrates a win for the rule of law — and adds to a growing wave of court defeats for Trump-era immigration restrictions.
