Supreme Court: Court and Refugees

supreme court: For 10 years she went through a rigorous process of interviews and screening and finally she was cleared to travel to the United States, according to The Chronicle Herald. But Ibrahim's hopes have been dashed. She wants to educate herself and her children in the United States. The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed the Trump administration to maintain its restrictive policy on refugees. Ibrahim, a 30-year-old mother of four children, escaped war-torn Somalia in 2007 after three men forced their way into her house and assaulted her. The court agreed to an administration request to block a lower court ruling that would have eased the ban on refugees and allowed up to 24,000 refugees to enter the country before the end of October.
