US judge rejects Trump administration's halt on immigration applications
The judge said the policy unlawfully singled out applicants from 39 countries and left thousands in indefinite limbo, blocking enforcement for the plaintiffs.
- On Friday, U.S. District Judge Dale Ho blocked the administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for approximately 3,000 Yemeni nationals, ruling that former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem failed to follow required procedures.
- Ho found Noem likely violated the law by ignoring congressional mandates, criticizing her social media rhetoric that labeled Yemeni immigrants "killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies" while recommending a full travel ban.
- Separately, U.S. District Judge Julia Kobick in Boston ruled Thursday that policies treating nationality as a "significant negative factor" for green card and work permit applicants from 39 countries are discriminatory and unlawful.
- These rulings halt the administration's review processes, which the court deemed "contrary to Congress's command," allowing applicants to remain in the U.S. while lawsuits proceed.
- Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is considering efforts to roll back Temporary Protected Status for Syria and Haiti, with a decision expected by end of June or early July, as the administration has already terminated TPS for nine countries total.
