DHS went on in its brief to lay out "two such formulations," thereby affirming the Obama Administration's support for extending asylum to victims of domestic violence. DHS ultimately recommended that the case be returned to a lower court for further consideration. (DHS Supplemental Brief, April 13, 2009).
Eventually all it will take to meet "refugee" eligibility will be "anyone under emotional distress because they want to live in the U.S.".
According to The New York Times, both the Clinton Administration and the Bush Administration considered whether to extend asylum to victims of domestic violence in foreign nations. Ultimately both decided against this policy shift, fearing the opening of "a floodgate of asylum petitions from battered women across the globe." The Obama Administration, however, seems committed to moving ahead with the extension despite its consequences here in the U.S. and abroad where reform is most needed.

And I suppose that those granted asylum will also be able to vote.
