The decision strengthens the administration’s use of rapid expulsions under its immigration crackdown and could affect migrants facing removal to countries with which they have no prior connection. The case arose from a Boston federal judge’s ruling requiring the Department of Homeland Security to provide migrants an opportunity to contest deportations on safety grounds. The Supreme Court’s action is an emergency measure rather than a final ruling on the policy’s legality, leaving the broader legal dispute unresolved.
