As a Californian, I am outraged to see how my Senator was treated earlier today. @SenAlexPadilla, thank you for standing up for immigrant Californians today and every day. Millions of us stand with you. 🫶

Something to keep your eye on after the birthright citizenship arguments: 2 other cases before SCOTUS- 1 involving humanitarian parole & another involving TPS- where the govt is asking SCOTUS to let it deport up to 1 million people w/o going through the proper legal process. 🧵

🎉BREAKING: We won! The judge just officially stayed (blocked) the federal notice that was set to end humanitarian parole for Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela on April 24th. The court also granted us class certification. Stay tuned for more details on what this ruling means!

I’ll be tweeting here from Federal District Court in San Francisco as Judge Chen hears arguments in the case of National TPS Alliance v Noem which seeks to prevent Trump admin from de-documenting Venezuelans and Haitians w/ TPS.

From CBP One web site. It is over. Future outstanding appointments about 30,000 are being cancelled. People are receiving those email now. This afternoon presentations had been rescheduled to Feb 9 last Friday. Now to be crushed. At least this morning people were allows to present.

Just a little Friday recap of some of the latest filings in the #DACA case before Judge Hanen as I have seen some misinformation going around. Yesterday, the court granted several motions the parties had filed. The court did not require any new briefing.
