A Venezuelan civic group and several migrants continued federal immigration agencies this week, alleging that the Trump administration illegally implemented “temporary protected status” imposed by Biden for Venezuelans.

The Venezuelan association of Massachusetts, a progressive group called Democracy Forward, and three migrants brought an action in trials before the Boston Federal Court against the Ministry of Internal Security, Customs and Borders and Citizenship and Immigration Services of the United States disputing what they called President Donald Trump and the protected statutes of internal security, Kristi Noem, the “sudden and illegal ending” of temporary statutes.

In a statement, democracy said that the complainants had opposed an alleged mass email in April in DHS to TPS migrants declaring: “It is time for you to leave the United States.”

The complainants suggested that the rejoined missive recipients had the legal right to stay in the United States given their permission documentation and other related documents for which they could have asked.

They also argued that the revocation of the TPS requires determinations on a case -by -case basis and wrongly disrupts the lives and professions and risks which are subject to expulsion.

“As a community organization, we have first seen the direct damage that this sudden policy inflicts on people who have legally arrived, respected on all the requirements of the DHS, including the CBP One process, and worked hard to build a stable life for their families,” said the Venezuélian Association of Massachusetts Carlina Velázquez and Carlos Martín Medina in A joint declaration obtained by Fox News Digital.

The Democracy striker, President Skye Perryman, added that the “sudden change of policy” presents “the assault on the Trump-Vance administration against immigrants who respected the rules”.

“Let me be clear: none of this concerns immigration, it is cruelty and targeting people in vulnerable circumstances,” said Perryman.

“Our customers used the CBP One application because the DHS demanded it. To strip them now with their rights and threaten them with expulsion is a blatant violation of the law and the confidence of the public.”

Migrants fleeing Venezuela – indeed a dictatorship since the election of late Hugo Chávez of 1999 – obtained special protection by former President Joe Biden in 2021 due to humanitarian concerns.

Biden then extended TPS in 2023, qualifying around 350,000 Venezuelan migrants to arrive after the original period imposed.

After Trump took office, Noem revoked the TPS 2023 extension, which put the ball on the possible cancellation of a protected status for Venezuelan migrants.

In April, the judge appointed by Obama, Edward Milton Chen, issued an injunction blocking Noem’s decision to end TP. The Supreme Court rejected Chen in a brief order not signed in May, allowing Noem’s chronology to resume.

Although not signed, judge Ketanji Brown Jackson noted his dissent.

But Chen then followed in June with a close decision noting that pre -existing and similar work permits should not be canceled retroactively.

A panel of ninth circuit of three judges in Pasadena, California, heard the arguments for the last time during a July call by the Trump administration during which a judge would have called The comments of the president “probably racist”.

In comments to Fox News Digital, DHS assistant secretary, Tricia McLaughlin, said that the trial is “a desperate attempt to maintain half a million illegal foreigners poorly approved in this country and undermine the constitutional power of President Trump to apply American immigration laws.”

“Administration Biden abused its conditional liberation authority to create a regime of capture and industrial release, and the Trump administration corrects this,” she added.

“This trial is an insult to the tens of millions of Americans who gave this president a mandate to restore security and common sense to our immigration system.”
