  • Under the policy, the U.S. has sent more than 25,000 migrants to at least 29 third countries, often Mexico, according to Third Country Deportation Watch.

    Coverage and social posts spread word of the ruling

    Outlets including the New York Times, Washington Post and Politico published near-simultaneous reports, and the stories circulated widely on social platforms with users welcoming the outcome.

    “A unanimous three-judge panel ruled that deportees must have "a meaningful opportunity to contest" their deportation.”

      An appeals court smacked down Trump’s (obviously unlawful) third-country removal scheme. A win is a win. But there are a lot of “buts.”

      Working parents snatched up when they pick up their children at school. Longtime residents caring for elderly parents. Law-abiding immigrants seized and transported with disregard for judicial orders. Ruined lives, imprisonment, and torture.

    • This is a small fraction of the 985,000 people deported during Trump's second administration. The administration argues that those being deported to third countries have final removal orders from U.S. immigration judges. However, they cannot be sent to their home countries

    1st Circuit panel upholds due-process requirement

    A three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals largely affirmed Murphy's ruling, holding that migrants must get a meaningful chance to raise safety concerns before being sent to third countries, though it overturned one procedural part of his order.

    “DHS's proposed interpretation would deny access to that protection to a substantial swath of noncitizens who are sent to third countries with no notice of their destination. We decline to adopt such an interpretation.”
    — Circuit Judge Seth Aframe
