U.S. attorney general curbs asylum for immigrant victims of violence

Michelle Brané, director of the Women’s Refugee Commission’s Migrant Rights and Justice program headquartered in New York, said, “Attorney General Sessions’ decision to limit the reasons why people can claim asylum is a devastating blow to families who come to our country seeking protection and safety.

“This administration continues to swiftly deconstruct America’s moral code and values by doing everything possible to limit access to asylum.”
