ROME — Judges at the EU's top court ruled Friday that Italy can fast-track deportations of migrants to countries designated as 'safe,' but with limits.
The Court of Justice of the European Union was asked if an accelerated asylum procedure, allowing officials to quickly return migrants from countries not facing war or significant crises, was permissible.

Tell us: What do you want to know about immigration?

The nation's approach to immigration has been changing fast. President Trump's administration is pursuing his campaign pledge to deport millions of migrants. It has ramped up raids at workplaces and courthouses, and intends to alter the requirements to gain U.S. residence or citizenship dramatically. We want to hear your questions about these changes — and how they're affecting you. Our journalists will answer your questions in the On Politics newsletter, and we may use them to guide our reporting. We'll read every response, and reach out to some of you to learn more. I will not publish any part of your question or response without first contacting you and hearing back from you, and I won't publish your name unless you give me permission to do so. I also won't use your contact information for anything besides following up with you, nor will I share it with anyone outside our newsroom.
