Eight states sued the United States government in court over a program that reunites Central American migrants with their children.
The Republican-led states of Texas, Arkansas, Alaska, Florida, Indiana, Missouri, Montana, and Oklahoma sued the Joe Biden administration over the refugee and parole program for Central American minors implemented since March of last year, which also allows immigrants living legally in the United States to petition for their children as refugees from countries such as El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras.
The plaintiffs consider it an abuse of power to revive this program, since they say it allows certain foreigners who are in American territory to obtain a protected status after illegally entering the country.
