Trump Admin Asks Supreme Court to Allow Removal of Protected Status for Venezuelan Nationals

The solicitor general said a federal judge in California exceeded his authority.

The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to remove a lower courtโ€™s block on its decision to remove temporary legal protections for more than 300,000 Venezuelan nationals.

U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer told the Supreme Court in a brief on May 1 that a federal judge in California had overstepped his authority.

โ€œThe court contravened an express bar on judicial review, sidestepped black-letter law authorizing agencies to reverse as-yet-inoperative actions, and embraced a baseless equal-protection theory on the road to issuing impermissible universal relief that intrudes on central Executive Branch operations,โ€ Sauer said.

He added that the order โ€œupsets the judgments of the political branches, prohibiting the executive branch from enforcing a time-sensitive immigration policy and indefinitely extending an immigration status that Congress intended to beโ€ temporary.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit had rejected the administrationโ€™s request for a stay pending appeal.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
