DHS Orders 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans to “Self-Deport” or Face Arrest

HeadlineJun 13, 2025

The Trump administration has ordered over half a million immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela to “self-deport,” or face arrest, after stripping them of their humanitarian parole status, which authorized them to temporarily live and work in the United States. This comes just weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration’s efforts to end the relief, granted under Biden’s presidency. Guerline Jozef, executive director of the Haitian Bridge Alliance, said in a statement, ”DHS is tearing those lives apart, forcing families into chaos. … This is not policy — it is punishment.”
