Supreme Court rules Trump can revoke protected status for 500,000 immigrants pending appeal
- The Supreme Court ruled on Friday that the Trump administration can revoke temporary legal protections from over 500,000 immigrants under the CHNV parole program.
- This ruling follows Trump's effort to dismantle Biden administration policies that allowed migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to live legally in the U.S. Temporarily.
- The Supreme Court removed a lower court’s injunction that had maintained humanitarian parole protections for over 500,000 migrants, impacting nearly one million individuals—including approximately 350,000 Venezuelans—who may now face deportation under separate rulings.
- Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, joined by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, dissented, warning the decision causes irreparable harm and causes lives of nearly half a million migrants to unravel before legal claims resolve.
- The ruling enables the administration to proceed with terminating these temporary statuses, suggesting significant impacts on immigrant communities nationwide while appeals continue.
