Deportation injunction for Venezuelan migrants
DENVER — A federal court in Colorado certified a class of Venezuelan migrants detained in Colorado who are challenging their deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. The court also granted a preliminary injunction to the migrants, who had secured a temporary restraining order in mid-April. “Efforts to recharacterize what Petitioners seek ... as somehow an unconstitutional infringement on presidential authority ... are unpersuasive.”
