The immigration status of 500,000 migrants hangs in the balance after the Supreme Court ruled on Friday that the Trump administration can revoke their protected condition from being deported.
The move will include migrants from Venezuela, Haiti and Cuba, according to a story by the Daily Wire. Nevertheless, the decision, which was not signed, was a ruling in the case that will still permit the Trump administration to follow the mass deportations.
Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor wrote and signed a dissent, contending that the decision of the court would have “the devastating consequences of allowing the government to precipitously upend the lives and livelihoods of nearly half a million noncitizens while their legal claims are pending.”
The Biden administration opened the country to thousands of Venezuelans, Cubans and Nicaraguans in 2023. When Trump moved into office, he revoked their protected status, but immigration lawyers sued, saying that his actions “are not only illegal, but shockingly callous.”
According to Newsmax, “the Trump administration’s move to terminate the parole program was paused by a federal judge in Massachusetts in March, and that pause was upheld by an appeals court earlier this month. Solicitor General D. John Sauer argued in a May 8 emergency application to the Supreme Court that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has “broad discretion over categories of immigration determinations” and has the power to revoke the protected status recognized under Biden’s parole program, according to the Times.”
