Overturning the Biden asylum officer rule (S.J.Res. 46)

Senate vote · S.J.Res. 46 · On the Joint Resolution · May 26, 2022Borders

Would have cancelled a rule letting asylum officers, instead of immigration judges, grant asylum to people caught at the border.

Liberty position
Yea
The Senate voted
46 Yea, 48 Nay
Why Yea is the liberty side
The rule made it faster and easier to grant asylum at the border. Voting yes opposes that.

Counted under the principle Citizenship and the rule of law.

I say Yea was the liberty side. Agree, or not? Readers argue it here, in their own words. Not mine, and not checked the way a vote is.
