An internal memo prepared by a top Trump immigration official recommends that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services be stripped of its authority to delay deportations for undocumented immigrants receiving treatment for serious medical conditions

.

Nuebel Kovarik writes that USCIS would prefer that McAleenan revoke the agency’s authority to grant deferred action unless required to do so by statute — “DACA is deferred action, so obviously it has been abused,” Krikorian said. “Amnestying hundreds of thousands of people is something that Congress needs to do, not bureaucrats. This isn’t an issue of postponing someone’s deportation.”in September 2017. Several federal judges blocked the termination, and the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on the matter in mid-November.

Cuccinelli, speaking to reporters after an Axios event Thursday, said he couldn’t comment on the deferred action moves because of ongoing litigation. A Boston-based immigrant rights groups filed a lawsuit last week that seeks to block the change. The agency estimates that roughly 1,000 people request deferred action annually, with fewer than half granted relief. Advocates insist that ending the policy will put vulnerable immigrants at risk.
