Supreme Court allows Trump to revoke legal status for 500,000 migrantsJustices Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor, two of the court's three liberal justices, dissented.
President Donald Trump's administration can temporarily revoke the legal status of over 500,000 migrants living in the US, the US Supreme Court ruled on Friday.
"The Supreme Court justly stepped in".
The ruling comes after the Supreme Court earlier this month allowed Trump officials to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) - a separate programme - for some 350,000 Venezuelan immigrants living and working in the US.
The Biden administration also established a parole programme in 2022 for Ukrainians fleeing after Russia's invasion.
