The US Supreme Court has ruled that the Trump administration can temporarily end legal protections for more than 500000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, exposing them to possible deportation.
The Supreme Court ruled Friday that the Trump administration may temporarily revoke the legal status granted under the humanitarian parole program to over 500000 migrants. This program, initiated under former President Joe Biden, allowed migrants fleeing violence and political instability in their home countries to live and work legally in the US for two years.
This decision overturns a lower court order that had blocked the administration’s attempt to end the program, putting migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela at risk of deportation while legal challenges proceed. The court did not provide detailed reasoning in its brief ruling, which is typical for emergency cases.
Two liberal justices, Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor, dissented from the majority decision. The administration argued that humanitarian parole was always intended as a temporary measure and that the Department of Homeland Security has the authority to end it without court approval.
This ruling follows a previous Supreme Court decision allowing the revocation of parole status for approximately 350000 Venezuelan migrants, bringing the total number of affected individuals close to one million.
