A federal judge in Florida—who happens to be an appointee of former President Donald Trump—temporarily blocked the Biden Administration late Thursday night from carrying out a recently implemented “parole” policy that would allow the temporary release of migrants who have crossed the southern border illegally.from U.S. District Judge T. Kent Wetherell stands to inject a healthy dose of chaos into the country’s immigration system just as a COVID-era policy, called Title 42, was set to expire.
In response to Thursday’s expiration, the White House cooked up a “parole” system that would have prevented overcrowding in detention facilities by releasing migrants into the U.S. with the understanding that they must report to the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Agency to begin the immigration process.
Because of the mounting problems, the Biden Administration argued strenuously that Wetherell leave its parole system in place, if only on an “emergency basis.” Immediately following the ruling, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas released a video message attempting to clarify the administration’s policy.
