The latest decision by the US Supreme Court could have a significant impact on the fate of hundreds of thousands of migrants in the country. The court has allowed the Donald Trump administration to cancel a humanitarian program launched by the Joe Biden administration and allowing more than 500,000 people to legally live in the United States. This was reported by The New York Times.
The decision could have serious consequences for thousands of migrants from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Haiti who have found temporary refuge in the United States. Under the program implemented under Biden, they were able to enter the country through personal sponsors and obtain work permits in an expedited manner.
According to the court document, a request for a stay, previously accepted for consideration by Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, was denied. Now, the Trump administration has officially opened the way for a re-activation of migration policy.
This decision is not limited to one humanitarian program. In April, White House officials proposed deporting some migrants without trial, citing the potential for lengthy court proceedings. Such demands are reminiscent of Trump's tough immigration policies during his previous presidency.
Another decision, announced on May 20, authorized the start of deportation proceedings against about 350,000 migrants from Venezuela. They had previously been living under temporary protection.
According to The Washington Post, the Trump administration is preparing deportation plans not only for those from Latin America, but also for thousands of migrants from Sudan, Afghanistan, Yemen, Libya, Ukraine and other countries. This raises serious questions about the principles of humanitarianism in America.
The program launched by Biden was welcomed by non-governmental organizations, human rights activists and the international community. Now, the cancellation of this program could become a major test for immigrants in America.
The coming weeks will be a time of intense scrutiny over the implementation of the decision and its impact on people's lives. US immigration policy is set to once again become a global topic of debate.
