The DHS proposal would terminate a Biden administration program that allowed more than 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans to fly to the U.S.

Summary

The Trump administration is preparing to revoke legal status for migrants admitted under Biden’s CHNV program from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.

The program, which allowed over 530,000 migrants to enter legally with U.S. sponsors, aimed to curb illegal immigration but was frozen by Trump.

Officials plan to revoke migrant parole status, triggering deportation proceedings for those not obtaining another benefit, and have also targeted temporary protected status.

Critics call the plan cruel and chaotic, warning it undermines immigration and fuels Trump’s broader crackdown on both lawful and unlawful entrants.

    If keeping this guy out of office had only been a good enough reason to vote for his principal opponent, this could have been avoided.

      It was wonderful motivation for me. Alas, I only voted once. I gotta do more, if we ever get to vote again.

      Guess his principal opponent should have been better.
