On Monday, the Supreme Court had the Trump government removed the protection of nearly 350,000 Venezuelan immigrants who are allowed to stay in the United States without the risk of expulsion under a program known as temporary protected status.
The short order of the court was not signed and gave no reasons, which is typical when the judges decide on emergency applications. No voice count was mentioned, although Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson noted that she would refuse the request of the administration.
The judges announced that they would enable the Trump administration to terminate the protection pending the attraction of the case, so that the administration could possibly go through deportations. However, the judges have also made it clear that they would retain the ability of individual immigrants to apply some legal challenges if the government tried to cancel their work permits or to remove them from the country.
The court is flooded with applications arising from President Trump’s Blitz of executive orders, many of those who block, pause or limit the statements of the administration of the administration, especially in immigration.
This case started in February, when Kristi call, the Minister of Interior Security, an extension of 18 months of the temporary protected status that had been granted to the Venezuelans by the Biden administration. People affected by the change, complained and said that the move violated the administrative procedures and was influenced by racial bias.
In March, judge Edward M. Chen of the Federal District Court in San Francisco Blocked the efforts of the administration To remove the protection while the case went ahead. He said that the claimants had shown that they would probably succeed in demonstrating that Mrs. Nemem’s actions “were not authorized by the law, random and fickle and motivated by unconstitutional animus.”
Judge Chen found that the termination of the initiative would cause irreparable damage “to hundreds of thousands of people whose lives, families and resources of existence will be disrupted, the United States will cost billions of economic activities and be injured in public health and security in communities in the United States.”
The US Court of Appeal for the ninth circuit rejected the administration’s request to pause the judgment of Judge Chen.
The temporary protected status program, adopted by the congress and signed by President George HW Bush, allows migrants from nations Those national disasters, armed conflicts or other extraordinary instability have experienced to live and work legally in the United States.
Mr. Trump has tried to terminate the protection under the program because he wants to realize his campaign blade to deport millions of immigrants. His efforts were aimed at terminating the protection for nearly 350,000 people at the beginning of April, and for hundreds of thousands more later this year.
In the administration Emergency application, D. John Sauer, the Advocate General, wrote that the law that created the program specifically burned the judicial court of the decisions of the executive power. A provision of the law said that there was “no judicial assessment of any provision” about “the designation, or termination or expansion of a designation, of a foreign state.”
Judge Chen said the provision did not forbade him to decide whether Mrs. was called authorized to leave the protection.
Mr. Sauer also criticized the scope of the judgment of Judge Chen, who repeatedly submitted a complaint that the administration submitted to the judges in her requests for their intervention on different issues.
“The court has introduced national exemption that replaced the assessment of the secretary of the national interest – an area in which a court is uniquely unqualified to penetrate,” wrote Mr Sauer.
Mr. Sauer asked the judges to act quickly. “The immediate attention of this court is especially justified,” he wrote, “because long -term lawsuits will effectively prevent the president from forcing a critical component of the immigration policy of the administration.”
Lawyers for the challengers responded That the law adds the program strictly limited early termination of protections that adds that Mrs.’s action was not authorized under the law. “Nowhere does the Statute give the Secretary Authority to leave or engage an extension,” they wrote.
They added that Mr Sauer’s approach would “leave the federal courts powerless to even clearly stop lawless agency – whether it’s TPS or expand.”
The Supreme Court has introduced various other emergency applications with Mr Trump’s immigration policy. In one, the administration asked the judges To continue with a plan to withdraw deportation protection for migrants from four restless countries under a program known as a humanitarian conditional release.
In another, The court ordered the administration To facilitate the return of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, who was wrongly sent to El Salvador, where he stays.
