US Judge Blocks Trump Policy Fining Migrants Up to $1.8M

A U.S. federal judge has blocked the Trump administration's policy of imposing fines on migrants, which had reportedly levied over 103,000 fines totaling approximately $84 billion since July. The ruling halts a controversial enforcement mechanism, though the administration may appeal. This marks a judicial check on executive immigration enforcement, with implications for border policy and legal precedent.
