President Donald Trump’s administration says it’s expediting a Syrian man’s applications to bring his wife and daughter to Wisconsin in the face of a federal lawsuit.

A top immigration official filed a declaration late Friday ordering U.S. officials in Jordan, where the wife and daughter would travel for visa interviews, to process their applications by March 28. He further ordered that the office schedule interviews for no later than April 20 if the applications are in order.

The man’s lawyer didn’t immediately respond to a message.
