Overview

• Judge Indira Talwani issued an emergency suspension of the Trump administration's decision to end a humanitarian program admitting 532,000 migrants.
• The program, established in 2023 under President Biden, allowed Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguayens, and Venezuelans to reside legally in the U.S. for two years.
• The suspension prevents mass deportations that were set to begin by April 24, 2025, following the program's termination in late March.
• Talwani ruled that the administration misapplied accelerated expulsion procedures designed for undocumented entrants to legally admitted migrants.
• This ruling underscores ongoing tensions between executive immigration policies and judicial oversight, with significant implications for U.S. immigration enforcement.
