The Supreme Court has sided with President Donald Trump, allowing him to revoke the legal status that Joe Biden gave to hundreds of thousands to so-called migrants.
In a 7-2 ruling, with Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissenting (of course), the Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can suspend a Biden-era parole program that allowed a 500,000 “migrants” from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to temporarily live and work in the U.S.
According to Fox News:
The Supreme Court decision stays, for now, a lower court ruling that halted Trump's plans to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) protections for some migrants living in the U.S., which allows individuals to live and work in the U.S. legally if they cannot work safely in their home country due to a disaster, armed conflict or other "extraordinary and temporary conditions."
U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer asked justices earlier this month to allow the administration to proceed with its decision to revoke the status for the migrants, accusing U.S. District Judge Edward Chen of improperly intruding on the executive branch’s authority over immigration policy.
In her dissent, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson relief on feelings over facts, writing that the effect of the court’s order is “to have the lives of half a million migrants unravel all around us before the courts decide their legal claims.”Matt Palumbo is the author of “The Heir: Inside the (Not So) Secret Network of Alex Soros”
