Judge Blocks Trump Immigration Freeze

A federal judge in Rhode Island has overturned a Trump-era immigration policy that stalled applications from 39 countries, freeing thousands stuck in legal limbo. The ruling, spurred by lawsuits from advocacy groups and unions, declares USCIS’s freeze unlawful — violating congressional procedures and causing undue delays. The policy, enacted in 2025 after a D.C. shooting, targeted “Third World” nations and halted processing of citizenship, asylum, work permits, and green cards. Now, applicants from those countries can finally move forward without the arbitrary hold — a major victory for fairness and due process.
