DHS statement on deportations

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin emphasised the government’s commitment to removing dangerous individuals from the country.

“Every day, DHS is delivering on President Trump’s mandate from the American people to deport illegal aliens from our country,” he said. “Just last week, ICE deported murderers, drug traffickers, and burglars. With deportations up, crime has gone down across the country. We will not stop deporting illegal aliens until we have made America safe again.”

Thousands face deportation as US judge takes decision

Legit.ng earlier reported that a US federal judge has cleared the way for the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for South Sudanese nationals living in the United States, dealing a significant blow to immigrant rights advocates who had sought to maintain the protections.

US District Judge Patti Saris of the District of Massachusetts rejected a challenge brought by several immigrant rights organisations, including New York-based African Communities Together, on Friday. The groups had argued that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) lacked the legal authority to terminate South Sudan's TPS designation.
