Over 500,000 immigrants face U.S. deportation deadline
More than 500,000 immigrants from four countries are facing deportation from the United States. They must leave by April 24. These individuals entered the U.S. legally under a program called humanitarian parole, which was started by President Biden in 2022. The Biden administration has announced that this program will end soon. The Secretary of the Department indicated that after the program ends, these immigrants will not have a legal way to stay in the country. They are being urged to leave before their legal status expires. Kristi Noem, a political figure, expressed a desire for the process to move quickly. She supports the enforcement of this decision to ensure that those who entered under the program leave as required. The situation highlights the ongoing political tensions around immigration policies in the U.S.
