US Supreme Court Allows Trump to Resume Third-Country Deportations
–
Neutral summary
The US Supreme Court on Tuesday, September 29, temporarily lifted restrictions on the Trump administration's policy of deporting migrants to third countries, granting an emergency request from the Justice Department. The move suspends a ruling by District Judge Brian Murphy of Boston, who had declared the policy illegal, and allows deportations to resume without giving migrants an opportunity to raise concerns about risks such as torture or persecution. The court will hear arguments on the merits in December, with a final decision expected by July 2027. According to human rights groups, more than 25,000 migrants have been deported to 29 countries since the policy was introduced in 2025, the vast majority to Mexico. Lower courts had required advance notice and a chance for migrants to present their cases, but the Department of Homeland Security argues that general assurances from receiving countries are sufficient. This is the third time the Supreme Court has temporarily allowed the measure to proceed. The Intercept has published an investigation into the business profiting from this deportation system, while L'Humanité reports that ICE plans to hire 5,000 additional agents by the end of 2026.
