the Supreme Court cancelled oral arguments in suits challenging former President Trump’s defense funding for border wall construction and a policy forcing asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico while their immigration cases proceed. The Biden administration had sought to remove the cases from the Court’s upcoming calendar, citing President Biden’s Inauguration Day orders freezing funding for the U.S.-Mexico border wall and ending enrollment in the Remain in Mexico program. Under the program, more than 68,000 migrants have been forced to wait in Mexico for decisions on their immigration cases in the U.S., according to the administration’s request. The decision to grant the Biden administration’s request came in a brief order without explanation.

The Arizona Republic reports that immigration lawyers are upset over a recent decision that forces a return to appear in person for hearings at the Eloy Immigration Court in Eloy, Arizona, amid a rising number of COVID-19 cases in Arizona. The development comes as nearly two dozen immigration courts across the country have had to close in recent weeks after possible exposure to COVID-19, including the immigration courts in Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona. AILA Arizona Chapter Chair Olivia Porter says that, at Eloy, “the courtrooms are very small and very confined,” which makes it “impossible to maintain six feet between every single person who is going to be in that room at the same time.”
