Trump admin revokes legal status of over half a million migrants, gives 30 days to leave

Over half a million migrants had their legal status ended by President Donald Trump’s administration after deeming them “inadmissible aliens.”

The Trump crackdown on immigration continues in full force despite the left’s best efforts to throw up as many legal hurdles as possible. The latest move by the Department of Homeland Security comes as the administration works to end and in some cases reverse Biden-era border policies that have allowed migrants to enter the United States without much oversight.

In a notice posted to the Federal Register, the DHS detailed its termination of the “CHNV parole programs” established in 2022 and 2023.

“The Department of Homeland Security is terminating the categorical parole programs for inadmissible aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela and their immediate family members (hereinafter referred to as ‘CHNV parole programs’) that DHS announced in 2022 and 2023. This Federal Register notice is intended to provide context and guidance to the public regarding the termination of the CHNV parole programs and related employment authorization,” the notice reads.

Affected migrants have 30 days to leave the country.

The statement goes on to blame the Biden-Harris administration for allowing “inadmissible aliens” into the United States through parole programs.

“Over the previous two years, DHS has implemented programs through which inadmissible aliens who are citizens or nationals of designated countries, and their immediate family members, could request authorization to travel to the United States in order to be considered for parole into the country. Under these categorical parole programs, potentially eligible beneficiaries were adjudicated on a case-by-case basis, for advance authorization to travel to a U.S. port of entry (‘POE’) in the interior of the country to seek a discretionary grant of parole,” it reads.

“Consistent with the President’s direction, and for the independent reasons stated in this notice, this notice terminates the CHNV parole programs. Although DHS established the categorical programs for each country through a separate notice in the Federal Register, the justification for the establishment of each of the four categorical programs was very similar, and the rationale for termination is largely consistent for all four parole programs. Thus, DHS is announcing the termination of all four parole programs by publishing this single notice in the Federal Register,” the statement continued.
