A San Francisco federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s move to terminate legal immigration status for about 300,000 people.
U.S. District Judge Edward M. Chen of the Northern District of California issued a preliminary injunction stopping the government from canceling temporary protected status for people from El Salvador, Haiti, Nicaragua and Sudan.
As the Washington Post, reported Oct. 4, Chen found evidence that the Trump administration lacked “any explanation or justification” and in public statements had created “serious questions as to whether a discriminatory purpose was a motivating factor.”
