D.C. Circuit Rejects Challenge to Trump Administration Expedited Removal Policy (Is an En Banc Petition to Follow?)

The D.C. Circuit upheld the Trump administration's expedited removal policy for certain immigrants, dismissing a legal challenge that questioned the policy's constitutionality. This decision raises questions about whether the court will allow contentious "conservative" panel rulings to stand without broader review. With an en banc petition possible, it remains to be seen if this will lead to a full court review, potentially signaling a shift in how such high-stakes decisions are handled. This case underscores the ongoing tension between immigration policy and judicial review, with significant implications for future legal challenges and policy enforcement.
