Lawyers for the Trump administration submitted an emergency petition to the U.S. Supreme Court in a bid to revoke the temporary immigration status of hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan, Cuban, Haitian, and Nicaraguan nationals living in the United States.

In an emergency petition Thursday, U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer wrote on behalf of the government that the nine justices should place a hold on a federal judge’s decision that halted the government’s decision to terminate immigration parole that was granted to the Venezuelan, Cuban, Haitian, and Nicaraguan individuals under the Biden administration.
