Trump Administration Plans to Revoke Legal Status for 240,000 Ukrainians

The move, expected as early as April, could fast-track deportations and reverses humanitarian protections established under the Biden administration.

The Trump administration plans to revoke temporary legal status for 240,000 Ukrainians who fled Russia's invasion, potentially subjecting them to expedited deportation proceedings.
This policy is part of a broader effort to end Biden-era humanitarian parole programs, impacting over 1.8 million migrants, including those from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
The Department of Homeland Security has not made an official announcement, but internal communications suggest the rollbacks are imminent.
Critics highlight the sudden uncertainty faced by migrants, including families who have legally settled and integrated into U.S. communities under the temporary programs.
Advocates warn that the policy also affects U.S. allies, such as Afghan nationals who supported American military efforts and now face detention and potential deportation.
