>>If this case is won..it will provide the ways and means for any child who arrives in America from anywhere on Earth under any means to claim political asylum.

Absolutely wrong.

First, children already have claimed asylum. That is not new law.

Second, there are special rules provided by existing law for Cubans. The special rules are basically that any Cuban that reaches US land can claim asylum.

That doesn't apply to other groups.
