Appeals court allows Biden asylum restrictions at southern border to stay in place temporarily

  • The Biden administration's rule restricts asylum by requiring applicants to seek protection elsewhere or apply online first.
  • A federal judge blocked the rule, but an appeals court has temporarily allowed it to stay in effect.
  • The Biden administration argues the rule is necessary to maintain order at the border.
  • The case will be expedited for appeal, with arguments due in September.
  • Critics compare the rule to Trump-era policies and say it unlawfully denies asylum.
