Federal Judge Strikes Down Trump Immigration Policy Affecting Immigrants From 39 Countries

In a ruling sharply criticizing the administration, U.S. District Chief Judge John McConnell Jr. said the policy — which affected people from 39 countries — “threw the lives of countless immigrants into turmoil.”
