The Supreme Court says the U.S. can turn away asylum seekers at the border

In a significant ruling, the Supreme Court upheld the government's authority to deny asylum to those seeking refuge at the U.S. border, siding with a 6-3 vote that federal law permits this practice. This decision impacts the thousands of individuals fleeing persecution who now face barriers to applying for asylum. The ruling has sparked debate on immigration policy and the U.S.'s commitment to international refugee obligations, raising concerns among human rights advocates about the potential for increased border deaths and humanitarian crises.
