Trump administration puts key Biden-era immigration policy on notice: 'Unsustainable cycle'
Who's accountable for the results?
The Trump administration on Wednesday urged the Supreme Court to allow it to terminate the protected legal status of hundreds of thousands of Haitian migrants living in the U.S., the latest effort by the administration to unwind the Biden-era protections of hundreds of thousands of migrants living in the U.S., as part of the president's hard-line immigration enforcement agenda.
U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer urged the high court Wednesday to immediately intervene and overturn a lower court order that blocked the administration's effort to immediately revoke the Temporary Protected Status designation for some 350,000 Haitian migrants living in the U.S.
A majority of judges for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit also blocked the Trump administration's bid to end the program, citing the "substantial" and "well-documented harms" the migrants would likely face as a result — clearing the way for the administration to appeal the case to the high court.
BIDEN-APPOINTED FEDERAL JUDGE RULES TRUMP'S 'THIRD COUNTRY' DEPORTATION POLICY IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL
In his filing Wednesday, Sauer urged the Supreme Court to review more broadly the issue of whether the Trump administration can revoke TPS protections for other migrants living in the U.S.
"Unless the court resolves the merits of these challenges — issues that have now been ventilated in courts nationwide — this unsustainable cycle will repeat again and again, spawning more competing rulings and competing views of what to make of this court’s interim orders," Sauer said Wednesday. "This court should break that cycle."
The TPS program in question allows individuals from certain countries 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."
Haitians were first granted TPS status in 2010 following the devastating earthquake that killed more than 200,000 people and left some 1.5 million individuals in the country homeless.
The protections were extended several times, including under the Biden administration in 2021, following the July assassination of Jovenel Moïse, Haiti's last democratically elected president.
'BLANKIES,' ICE TACTICS AND LUXURY JETS: TOP MOMENTS FROM NOEM'S HOUSE TESTIMONY
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced last November that the U.S. would be ending TPS protections for Haitians in the U.S., prompting a group of individuals living in the U.S. with protected status to file suit.
