A federal judge in Texas delivered a ruling on Friday that effectively supports the Biden administration's contentious parole program, allowing up to 30,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to seek emergency entry into the United States each month, or 360,000 illegal aliens yearly.
The lawsuit alleges: The Department of Homeland Security has implemented a new visa program under the guise of preventing unlawful border crossings between ports of entry, allowing up to 360,000 individuals annually from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to be "Paroled" into the United States for two years or more, with eligibility for work authorization, bypassing Congressional legislation.
The new parole program enables advance authorization for entry into the U.S. without any legal basis.
The established parole program does not comply with the legal requirements of being case-specific, addressing urgent humanitarian needs, or providing significant public benefit.
The document urges the court to prohibit, declare illegal, and nullify DHS's unauthorized parole program.
As of November, according to the Department of Homeland Security statistics, approximately 234,000 people from the targeted countries had already taken advantage of the program, with the requirement of having a U.S. sponsor and arriving by air.
Judge Tipton's ruling pointed to a significant reduction, up to 44%, in illegal entries from these countries since the program's inception.
