Attorneys ask court to block alleged DHS move to deport migrants to South Sudan
Briefly

Immigration attorneys in Massachusetts are challenging the Trump administration's plan to deport migrants to countries they are not originally from, such as South Sudan. They've filed for a temporary injunction, arguing that this policy violates a federal judge's ruling on due process rights. Notably, at least one migrant from Myanmar has already been deported to South Sudan. The administration's negotiations with other countries for deported individuals, such as a $6 million deal with El Salvador, have raised legal and ethical concerns, particularly in light of previous intentions to deport migrants to Libya despite grave risks.
The Trump administration's actions to deport clients go against a federal judge's order barring such deportations without adequate due process, complicating the legal landscape for migrants.
Plaintiffs ask this Court for an immediate order ordering the immediate return of any class members removed to South Sudan, underscoring the urgency of protecting migrant rights.
