Supreme Court Gives Trump Admin Major Immigration Win

President Donald Trump scored a massive victory at the Supreme Court, even getting traditionally liberal justices in his favor.

The court lifted a lower court injunction that was preventing the president from stripping the protected legal status of hundreds of thousands of migrants currently residing in the United States.

The decision was 8 – 1 in favor of what the president wanted, with the only dissent coming from Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who former President Joe Biden appointed.

“The decision clears the way for the Trump administration to move forward with its plans to terminate Biden-era Temporary Protected Status (TPS) protections for roughly 300,000 Venezuelan migrants living in the U.S. and allows the administration to move forward with plans to immediately remove these migrants, which lawyers for the administration argued they should be able to do,” the report said.

When U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer spoke before the Supreme Court this month, he said the lower court had overstepped its bounds.

“The district court’s reasoning is untenable,” he said, saying that the program “implicates particularly discretionary, sensitive, and foreign-policy-laden judgments of the Executive Branch regarding immigration policy.”
