About the Episode
A federal judge temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order halting the admission of refugees into the United States. The judge said the administration had likely exceeded its authority by freezing the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, which was established by Congress in 1980. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Mark Hetfield of HIAS, the country’s oldest refugee resettlement agency.
