Former President Donald Trump is taking legal action to strike down one of the topics on the forgotten list of reliefs for immigration adjudications with the aim to eliminate humanitarian parole. These protections currently protect over 500,000 migrants by barring their removal.
In an emergency appeal filed Thursday, Trump’s lawyers asked the Supreme Court to reverse a lower court ruling that upheld temporary legal status for migrants initiated by Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. These individuals were given humanitarian parole (temporary protection from deportation) under a Biden-era program that enabled them to live and work legally in the US for two years.
Solicitor General John Sauer argued that the federal government has extensive authority to terminate such parole programs. He argues that the district court went too far in its ruling, too, by preventing them from ending the policy early, by not understanding immigration law and limiting executive discretion.
The case arises from an April ruling by US District Judge Indira Talwani, who found the Trump administration’s reasoning for ending the parole program to be legally deficient. Her ruling temporarily halted efforts to strip the protections, ensuring that hundreds of thousands of migrants would not face deportation, just prior to the protections set to expire.

Talwani ruled that any termination of parole should occur on a case by case basis not through sweeping policy changes. Her judgment preserved legal status for thousands at least for now.
This case is one part of a broader effort by Trump to change U.S. immigration policy. His administration has filed a number of emergency appeals contesting programs established by the Biden administration. Trump has repeatedly promised to deport millions of undocumented immigrants and to undo policies that create legal pathways for migrants.
The Supreme Court’s response could set a critical precedent for how far presidential power extends in altering immigration programs.
