Attorney General Jeff Sessions ruled that victims of domestic abuse and gang violence generally will not qualify for asylum under federal law. The decision overturns a 2016 ruling that a battered woman from El Salvador could seek asylum. Sessions says the move restores asylum principles and aims to cut a 700,000 case backlog, while stating non-governmental violence cannot by itself establish an asylum claim.
