  • The Biden administration on Friday extended temporary deportation protections for hundreds of thousands of immigrants residing in the United States as communities brace for the incoming Trump administration.

President Joe Biden has extended temporary deportation protections for nearly 1 million immigrants from El Salvador, Honduras, Nepal, and Nicaragua, allowing them to remain in the U.S. for an additional 18 months. This decision comes as a preemptive measure against potential stricter immigration policies if former President Donald Trump, who has promised a significant crackdown on immigration, wins the upcoming election. The extension affects approximately 300,000 Salvadorans, 76,000 Hondurans, 14,500 Nepalese, and 4,000 Nicaraguans, providing them with continued work permits and protection from deportation. This move is part of Biden's broader strategy to address immigration humanely, contrasting with Trump's previous policies which included ending these protections. The announcement was made by the Department of Homeland Security, highlighting the administration's commitment to these communities amidst ongoing legal and political battles over immigration policy.
