WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court on May 19 said the Trump administration could move to strip more than 300,000 Venezuelan immigrants from their temporary protected status.
A federal judge has blocked the administration from abruptly ending a program that allows immigrants to live and work in the United States for their own living conditions.
In an unsigned order, the Supreme Court said the administration could end protections for immigrants pending appeals in the case. A simple order was not given an explanation, as is common to the action of the emergency request.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson said he denied the administration’s request to lift the lower court’s order.
Ahiran Allananandham, an immigration lawyer who challenges policy changes, said the administration is taking on “the greatest single action to strip the non-citizen group of immigrant status in modern American history.”
“It’s really shocking that the Supreme Court approved it in its two-paragraph order,” Arulanantham said. “The humanitarian and economic impacts of the court’s decision are immediately felt and reverberated for generations.”
Many Venezuelans will be deported before the case is fully filed, he said.
The Justice Department argued that the courts do not have the authority to review decisions by the Secretary of Homeland Security “in this rapidly moving region of diplomacy.”
The Venezuelan lawyer replied, “It is uncontroversial for federal courts to say what the law is.”
Northern California U.S. District Judge Edward Chen ruled in March that ending the program could hurt hundreds of thousands, cost the economy billions and hurt public health and safety. He also said the government could not identify any real harm in maintaining the program while immigrants were challenging its end.
In February, Homeland Security Secretary Christie Noem ordered the end of a program called Temporary Protection Status. She said immigrants will pay local governments and some Venezuelans are members of gang Tren de Aragua, whose president Donald Trump declared a foreign terrorist organization.
The advocacy group, National TPS Alliance and a small number of Venezuelans, suing, arguing that it was not safe for them to return to their home country.
Venezuelans have lived under the dictatorship of Nicholas Maduro over a decade amid raging inflation, worsening, worsening poverty and widespread political persecution, according to the Washington office of Latin America.
Chán, a federal court judge in California said Venezuela will remain “full of economic and political upheavals and dangers, and the State Department will not move Venezuela “Level 4: Unlawful detention, terrorism, lures, lures, local law, crime, civil unrest enforcement, poor infrastructure.”
Despite Noem’s negative stereotypes and misconceptions, TPS beneficiaries average higher education than most Americans, half have bachelor’s degrees, with higher labor participation rates and billions of contributions to the economy.
