Washington, United States
The Immigration and Customs Control Service (ICE) resume deportations after a judge blocked the moratorium on expulsions enacted last week by the government of President Joe Biden, John Bruning, an immigration lawyer, said today.
Bruning indicated that the US has deported at least four people to Mexico and Honduras and rushes to deport another 18 to Mexico, Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic.
after his presidential investiture on Jan. 20, Biden ordered a 100-day pause in deportations but on Tuesday 26 federal Judge Drew B. Tipton of the South Texas District Court stopped the nationwide enforcement of the Biden order following a request to that effect from the state of Texas.

Bruning, member of Lawyers for Human Rights in Minneapolis, In Minnesota, reported the deportations from that state in a message to his Twitter account.
Other U.S. media reported that at least 15 people had been deported on Thursday. ICE did not respond in this regard.
Wednesday, activists who defend the immigrants claimed that the judge’s order, which impedes the moratorium, does not, however, oblige the government to deport the immigrants, as it is an executive decision that can be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against Biden’s decision to adjourn the deportations last week, arguing that the new administration acted arbitrarily by failing to consult him beforehand, and then the judge stopped the case. application of the presidential decree.

For his part, Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich called on the federal government to rescind the bathroom moratorium on the argument that the pause in the deportations it violates an agreement signed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with Arizona and other states in the last weeks of President Donald Trump’s government.
This action, seen by many as a hindrance to the current government’s inability to implement its migration policies, requires DHS to give notice, in writing and 180 days in advance, a notice to states with detailed arguments and explanations to support the changes in migration policy.
