Summary

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

The Trump administration plans to end temporary legal status for over 532,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, effective April 24. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), led by Secretary Kristi Noem, stated the termination aligns with Trump's executive order aimed at curbing parole programs that are deemed inconsistent with U.S. immigration policy. Migrants must either self-deport before the deadline or face removal, sparking legal challenges from advocacy groups. Critics label this decision as cruel, arguing it creates chaos for affected families, many of whom have established lives in the U.S. since obtaining status under the Biden-era program.
