Newsweek - An appeals court ruled on Friday that the Trump administration can begin deporting around 500,000 immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela.
DHS ordered half a million migrants to self-deport, issuing termination notices to nationals of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela who had entered the country under "humanitarian parole" programs that started under the administration of former President Joe Biden.
This marked the first mass revocation of humanitarian parole, according to the Associated Press.
...The Supreme Court in May issued a single-paragraph decision, unsigned, that granted a stay against an initial order issued by a judge that halted the deportations pending a decision in appeals court. Democrat-appointed Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.
Today's two-page decision lifts a district judge's ruling that blocked the Trump administration from canceling the "humanitarian parole" programs.
The administration sought to continue its deportations while the legal question played out in courts, which the initial order blocked.
....The three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston delivered a final decision Friday evening. Immigrants who entered the U.S. under the program will now lose their permits to work and are at immediate risk of deportation.
