A federal appeals court ruled that the United States can continue to quickly expel asylum seeker and migrant families caught crossing the US-Mexico border but should avoid sending them where they could face persecution or torture.The ruling (PDF) on Friday largely upholds a border policy put in place by the administration of former President Donald Trump, who made restricting immigration a core aim of his presidency.A group of impacted asylum seekers and migrants, represented by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and other non-profit organisations, sued over the expulsion policy known as Title 42, which the administration of President Joe Biden, who took office more than a year ago, has largely kept in place.
