Federal judge in Mass. rules Trump unlawfully revoked status of migrants who used entry app

"Judge Allison Burroughs stated that the Trump administration issued a blanket order to numerous migrants, particularly from Venezuela, Cuba, and Haiti, without any justification for the sudden change in policy."

"The CBP One application was introduced in 2023 to manage the influx of migrants at the southwestern border, allowing them to schedule appointments for inspection and gain temporary parole status."

"Burroughs concluded that the law mandates the government to determine that a specific group no longer requires temporary parole support before revoking it."

A federal judge in Boston ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully terminated the legal status of tens of thousands of migrants who used the CBP One app. The judge ordered the administration to reverse its directive for 900,000 migrants to leave immediately. The ruling applies to those who used the app between May 2023 and January 2025. Many affected individuals have already left or been deported. The judge emphasized that the government must provide rationale before revoking temporary parole status granted to migrants.
