U.S. Judge Orders Trump Administration to Restore Legal Protections for CBP One Migrants

WASHINGTON (Afghan Verified) -- U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs ordered the Trump administration to restore legal protections for migrants who entered the United States using the Biden-era CBP One app.

The judge ruled that the Department of Homeland Security unlawfully stripped these migrants of their legal status without following proper procedures. Burroughs found that the government failed to adhere to required legal steps for ending such protections.

The decision affects hundreds of thousands of migrants. More than 900,000 individuals entered the U.S. through the CBP One process, which the Trump administration shut down and repurposed for self-deportation.

The administration had sent mass notices to parolees, informing them it was time to leave the country.

The Department of Homeland Security criticized the ruling as judicial interference in executive functions.

The Trump administration is expected to appeal the decision, representing a setback to its immigration enforcement plans.
