The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to allow it to continue its program to deport immigrants to countries other than their own. This request follows a lower federal court's decision to uphold a block on the program, citing concerns that people were not given a chance to contest their cases.

The Supreme Court temporarily allowed the Trump administration to resume rapid deportations of immigrants to third countries, while also agreeing to hear arguments on the policy's legality in December. This decision marks a temporary victory for the administration's mass deportation agenda.
