Migrants along the U.S. border with Mexico sought shelter from the cold early as restrictions that prevented many from seeking asylum in the U.S. remained in place beyond their anticipated end
Just after midnight, all was quiet on the banks of Rio Grande in El Paso where the Texas National Guard was posted — though thousands of people have filled shelters and otherwise sought refuge along the border while the legal wrangling unfolds. Hundreds of migrants initially gathered by the concertina wire put up by the guard but left after being told by U.S. officials to go to a gate to be processed in small groups.
Hundreds of migrants remained in line in Juarez, hoping that the restrictions would be lifted and they would be let through. Others slept along the concrete embankments of the Rio Grande. A nearby shelter reached its capacity Tuesday night, stranding many outside. Conservative-leaning states appealed to the Supreme Court, warning that an increase in migration wouldIn response, Chief Justice John Roberts issued a temporary order to keep the restrictions in place.
Should the Supreme Court act before Friday, the government wants the restrictions in place until the end of Dec. 27. If the court acts on Friday or later, the government wants the limits to remain until the second business day following such an order.
