Supreme Court Lets Trump Revoke ‘Parole’ Status For 500,000 Migrants

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem acted to revoke protected status less than a year later, finding that the situation “no longer meets the criteria for an ongoing armed conflict that poses a serious threat to the personal safety of returning Syrian nationals.”

Immigration lawyers disagreed with that choice, saying that Syria was still dealing with a humanitarian crisis and that quickly taking away legal protections would force Syrians in the US to make “impossible choices.”

The administration says that the department can give or take away the temporary protections and that judges shouldn’t get involved.

The government must respond to the appeal by March 4.
