美国第九巡回上诉法院驳回特朗普政府扩大移民强制拘留政策

美国第九巡回上诉法院周四以2:1的多数意见裁定，特朗普政府不能拒绝在美国境内被拘留的移民获得保释听证的机会。1这一决议反对了政府去年7月发布的指导意见，该指导意见将强制拘留政策的适用范围扩展至美国内陆移民。1

该裁定加剧了联邦上诉法院之间的分歧。1除第九巡回法院外，另外五个上诉法院也已拒绝该政策，但第五巡回法院和第八巡回法院支持特朗普政府的立场。1这种司法分歧增加了美国最高法院最终介入此事的可能性。1

在多数意见中，法官Daniel Bress指出，虽然对相关复杂文本条款的任何解读都不尽完美，但对该法律的历史理解是更优的选择。1特朗普政府曾辩称，国会在1996年修改了移民法，允许在边境之外进行强制拘留。1

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled 2-1 on Thursday that the Trump administration cannot deny immigrants detained within the United States the opportunity to receive bail hearings.1 This decision aligns with rulings from five other appellate courts but contradicts positions taken by the Fifth and Eighth Circuits, intensifying a split among federal appeals courts and raising the likelihood that the U.S. Supreme Court will ultimately intervene in the matter.1

The case centers on guidance issued by immigration officials last July that expanded mandatory detention to apply to immigrants in the interior of the country.1 The Trump administration has argued that Congress modified immigration law in 1996 to permit mandatory detention beyond the border.1 In the majority opinion, Judge Daniel Bress wrote that while "no reading of the complex statutory text at issue here is perfect, the traditional understanding of the law remains the better choice."1
