The Donald Trump administration announced on Friday that it would end the legal protection given to Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela in the United States. The effect of this decision will be that 530,000 people may have to leave the US in about a month.
Such people will lose their legal status 30 days after the notice is published in the register.
US President Donald Trump is steadily intensifying his action on illegal immigrants. Non -residents of these four countries came to the United States in October 2022 with financial sponsors. He was given a two -year permit to live and work in the US. Now the Homeland Security Department has announced that on April 24, such people will lose their legal status 30 days after the notice is published in the federal register.
Parole was given for two years.
It is believed that this step will have a widespread impact. During the tenure of former President Joe Biden, these immigrants were given two years of parole, which is now effectively expired. Citizens from all four countries were allowed to enter the United States by air with American sponsors.
Trump administration decided to finish parole
The human parole system is a long -term legal system that the presidents have used to release people from countries where there is war or political instability. In such a situation, these people can enter America and live temporarily. The Trump administration has decided to abolish this system, alleging widespread misuse.
According to the news agency, the Department of Homeland Security has said that people who come on parole without a valid base to live in the US will have to leave the US before the end of their parole.
The decision to cancel the legal status of five lakh immigrants by the Trump administration may cause many people to face exile. However, it is not clear how many people entering the US under the parole program have got the option of safety or legal status.
What did Biden decide?
In 2022, the then President Joe Biden started the parole entry program for the people of Venezuela. It was later expanded in 2023 and included the people of Cuba, Haiti and Nicaragua. Diplomatic and political relations between the United States and these four countries remain tense.
Donald Trump has intensified action against illegal immigrants after assuming the post of President of the United States. So far, a record number of illegal immigrants have been expelled. The Trump administration argued that the previous Biden administration had started a payroll program that was beyond legal limitations. He issued an executive order against him on 20 January.
