How much longer can this go on?
In a move sparking outrage across the country, a federal judge on Monday halted the Trump administration’s effort to end legal status and work permits for over 530,000 foreign nationals who entered the U.S. under President Joe Biden’s controversial CHNV immigration program.
The migrants—originating from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela—were flown into the United States through a mass parole program launched by Biden in 2022. The program has faced intense backlash from law enforcement, border agents, and conservative leaders, who say it exploits loopholes in immigration law and shifts the burden onto American taxpayers.
The ruling, issued by Obama-appointed Judge Indira Talwani, claims each migrant must receive an individual case review before their status can be revoked—despite the overwhelming strain the program has placed on public resources.
“The court is interfering with the same executive authority Biden abused to open the floodgates,” a Trump official told Fox News. “This isn’t justice. It’s political protection for lawlessness.”
🚨 What Is Biden’s CHNV Program?
President Biden created the Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan (CHNV) parole program in 2022 using executive parole authority, allowing foreign nationals to fly directly into the U.S. if they had a sponsor—skipping normal immigration channels.
Each migrant was granted:
- Two years of legal stay
- Work authorization
- Access to taxpayer-funded resources
The program was later paused after being linked to rampant fraud and violent crimes, including multiple child rape cases involving recipients.
Despite this, Judge Talwani ruled that Trump’s reversal cannot proceed without individualized reviews, effectively freezing deportation efforts and allowing the migrants to remain in the country beyond their April 24 deadline.
💸 The Hidden Cost to American Taxpayers
Conservatives warn that Biden’s parole program has become a quiet border crisis, allowing hundreds of thousands of migrants to bypass traditional vetting while driving up costs in:
- Healthcare
- Public education
- Housing assistance
- Law enforcement
With over 15 million illegal immigrants already residing in the U.S., critics argue that Biden’s policies only encourage more to come, while American seniors and veterans struggle to access the services they’ve earned.
🇺🇸 Trump Allies: This Is Executive Tyranny
Under President Trump, DHS sought to revoke Biden’s mass parole scheme, citing public safety threats, fraud, and budget concerns. But this ruling ties the hands of the administration just weeks before the cancellation was set to take effect.
“Biden used executive power to push this reckless policy. Now Trump’s told he can’t use the same authority to undo it?” said a top Trump aide. “This is tyranny, not the rule of law.”
📌 Bottom Line: American Sovereignty Undermined Again
This decision once again proves how activist judges and far-left policies are undermining American sovereignty and putting noncitizens ahead of legal residents.
With the border crisis spiraling out of control, this ruling sends a dangerous message: illegal immigration pays—and law-abiding Americans foot the bill.
