Summary
The Trump administration plans to revoke temporary legal status for 240,000 Ukrainians who fled Russia’s war, fast-tracking them for deportation.
The move is part of a broader effort to strip protections from 1.8 million migrants admitted under Biden’s humanitarian parole programs.
Trump’s policies also target 530,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
Legal challenges are mounting, as affected individuals face uncertain futures. Advocates warn that even U.S. allies, such as Afghans who assisted the military, are now at risk of detention and deportation.
I cannot stress enough how similar this argument is to what I hear in the US from conservatives when they talk about shutting down the border and deporting people. I would watch the situation in Denmark very carefully if I were you. This is always how it starts.
Truly a friendly correction: “immigrants.” Emigrants are exiting, immigrants are entering.
