By Washington Post Staff April 8 at 5:24 PM A federal judge in Northern California issued a preliminary injunction Monday blocking the Trump administration from requiring asylum seekers to remain in Mexico while they await an immigration court hearing, clearing the way for the plaintiffs named in the lawsuit to enter the United States.
