Excerpts from article:
...Justice Sonia Sotomayor handed down a ferocious dissent Friday after the Supreme Court lifted the final barrier to a Trump administration rule that withholds green cards from immigrants dependent on government services.
...In dissent, Sotomayor said the Trump administration has been bringing cases to the Supreme Court prematurely by exploiting procedural rules.
..."Claiming one emergency after another, the government has recently sought stays in an unprecedented number of cases, demanding immediate attention and consuming limited Court resources in each," Sotomayor wrote.
...The Supreme Court blocked two nationwide injunctions from New York that barred enforcement of the new policy on Jan. 27.
...Before President Donald Trump took office, the government rarely sought emergency stays from the Supreme Court.
