- New ruling against mandatory detention is another blow to Trump immigration policy
A 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling requires immigrants detained under Trump's mandatory detention policy to receive bond hearings within 90 days, affecting Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. The decision faces opposition from the Department of Homeland Security, which claims it disagrees with the ruling and seeks Supreme Court review. The policy, criticized as unconstitutional by multiple courts, has been partially reversed in some states.
