Supreme Court Delivers HUGE Immigration Win For Trump Administration
By Danielle
In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled the Trump administration can deport illegal migrants convicted of crimes to third party countries.
The high court stayed a lower court order allowing migrants to challenge their deportation orders.
Per NBC News:
In a brief unsigned order that did not explain its reasoning, the court put on hold a federal judge’s ruling that said those affected nationwide should have a “meaningful opportunity” to bring claims that they would be at risk of torture, persecution or death if they were sent to countries the administration has made deals with to receive deported immigrants.
As a result, the administration will be able to try to quickly remove immigrants to such third countries, including South Sudan. Affected immigrants can still attempt to bring individual claims.
“The ramifications of the Supreme Court’s order will be horrifying; it strips away critical due process protections that have been protecting our class members from torture and death,” said Trina Realmuto, executive director of the National Immigration Litigation Alliance, one of the groups that brought the legal challenge.
