Non-binary person’s U.S. deportation paused due to risks faced by LGBTQ+ people
UNITED STATES, JUL 15 – The Trump administration plans to hire 10,000 new ICE agents and increase deportations, while grassroots groups mount block-by-block resistance to expanded enforcement efforts.
- A judge paused the deportation of Angel Jenkel, a non-binary person, due to risks faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in the U.S. from a lack of protections.
- Jenkel claimed potential irreparable harm if returned to the U.S. after overstaying a visitor visa while caring for a fiancé with a medical condition.
- The Federal Court criticized the immigration officer for not considering the latest risks for LGBTQ+ people in the U.S. in their decision.
- Justice Julie Blackhawk indicated that the officer's assessment was 'flawed and unreasonable,' allowing Jenkel's case to be reviewed.
