Brent Kendall reports for the WSJ:

Civil-rights and immigration groups filed a law­suit chal­leng­ing new Trump ad­min­is­tra­tion rules that could dra­mat­i­cally limit asy­lum claims by Cen­tral Amer­i­can mi­grants seek­ing en­try to the U.S.

The suit, filed in a northern Cal­i­for­nia fed­eral court on Tues­day, al­leges the new asy­lum pol­icy is “an un­lawful ef­fort to sig­nif­i­cantly un­der­mine, if not vir­tu­ally re­peal, the U.S. asy­lum sys­tem at the south­ern bor­der.

It “cru­elly closes our doors to refugees flee­ing per­se­cu­tion,” the suit added.

The Amer­i­can Civil Lib­er­ties Union filed the law­suit on be­half of sev­eral groups that as­sist mi­grants and refugees.
