During the campaign trail, Donald Trump vowed to end the CHNV parole program, which allows migrants from four countries (Haiti, Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela) to receive work permits and a two-year authorization to live in the U.S. "Get ready to leave because you're going to be going out real fast," said the President-elect in a Fox News interview in September.
He also used the interview to argue that, despite holding legal status for two years, parole recipients are "illegal immigrants" who should not be in the country, comments that were echoed by his running mate JD Vance in October, who labelled parole programs "mass grants."
