The Supreme Court on Wednesday approved President Trump‘s request to allow the administration to enforce its new asylum rule even as it is challenged in the courts.

The decision was issued in an order. Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, two of the court’s four liberal justices, dissented.

The order is a victory for Trump, who has vowed to take action to stem the tide of immigrants at the southern border, most of whom are coming from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.

The new asylum rules are expected to severely cut down on the number of immigrants from Central America who can request asylum in the United States, essentially preventing many of those coming from that region to do so.

They would make people seeking asylum who pass through another country before the United States ineligible unless they first seek asylum in the country through which they are traveling.
