Migrants who entered the US under the Biden-era programme will lose their deportation shield by the end of next month.

Summary:

US President Donald Trump’s administration has said it will revoke the temporary legal status of more than half a million migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela.

Migrants without a legal basis to remain have been warned to leave the country before their work permits and deportation shield are cancelled on 24 April, according to a notice posted by the federal government.

The 530,000 migrants were brought into the US under a Biden-era sponsorship process known as CHNV that was designed to open legal migration pathways. Trump suspended the programme once he took office.

      They most certainly are.

      A lot of left leaning folk don’t realize immigrants who went through the process like to pull the ladder up behind them.

      Because they’re one of the good ones who made it through.

        Disagree, they’re going to be mad it’s impacting other Cubans. Probably won’t care about the rest just as you said though
