A federal judge said deportees must first have a “meaningful opportunity” to seek humanitarian protection in the United States.

Donald Trump is asking the Supreme Court to rule on his administration's push to deport Venezuelan migrants with no apparent due process.

The temporary restraining order is aimed at protecting migrants from deportation to countries other than those identified in immigration proceedings.

The Justice Department in a filing asked the court to lift Washington-based U.S. District Judge James Boasberg's March 15 order calling for a temporary halt of the summary removals of the Venezuelans while a legal challenge to Trump's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to justify the deportations plays out.

The Trump administration asked the justices to allow it to use a wartime law to continue deportations of Venezuelans with little or no due process.

An appeals court sided with a judge who previously put a block on President Trump’s use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport suspected undocumented immigrants. ACLU Deputy Director of the Immigrants’ Rights Project Lee Gelernt explains why this was a victory for immigrants' rights and what the ACLU plans on doing next in the legal battle.

A temporary order will give some migrants a chance to convince the government that deporting them to “third countries” such as El Salvador would put them at risk.

A federal judge ruled Friday that a restraining order on the Alien Enemies Act will be extended through April 12, and another judge in Boston blocked the deportation of migrants.

Lower courts have temporarily blocked the government’s use of a wartime law to send Venezuelans to an El Salvador prison.
