The following excerpt is from E. Bay Sanctuary Covenant v. Garland, 994 F.3d 962 (9th Cir. 2020):
The district court also noted the public interest in "ensuring that statutes enacted by [their] representatives are not imperiled by executive fiat." Id. at 958 (quoting Maryland v. King , 567 U.S. 1301, 1301, 133 S.Ct. 1, 183 L.Ed.2d 667 (2012) ). As discussed earlier, the Rule is contrary to the asylum statute and contravenes clear congressional intent to give effect to our international treaty obligations.
