Federal Judge Rules Migrants Deported to El Salvador Must Challenge Removals
A federal judge mandates the Trump administration to allow migrants sent to an El Salvador prison to contest their deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
Overview
U.S. District Judge James Boasberg has ordered the Trump administration to provide over 100 Venezuelan migrants deported to El Salvador with the opportunity to challenge their removals. The ruling highlights due process violations, as many deportees were sent to a notorious prison without the chance to contest their status. The judge emphasized that significant evidence suggests many detainees are not connected to the alleged gang affiliations cited by the administration. This ruling is part of ongoing legal battles surrounding the use of the Alien Enemies Act for expedited deportations.
