Courts and Trump

 Roll Call -  The Supreme Court on Friday allowed the Trump administration for now to revoke a parole status for more than 500,000 immigrants in the country as legal challenges to the move proceed through lower courts. The brief order does not explain why the justices set aside a federal district court order that prevented the Trump administration from categorically revoking the status of immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela who were allowed to remain and work in the United States for up to two years under a Biden-era initiative.

The Trump administration argued in its emergency application to the Supreme Court that the lower court judge did not have authority to require a case-by-case review to cut short the previously granted parole.

The government argued that Congress never gave the courts authority to review the case-by-case determinations of parole status, which the Biden administration granted on a widespread basis and the Trump administration sought to revoke through a similar process.
