Donald Trump’s Green Card Application Pause Dealt Blow by Federal Judge
Newsweek ^ | July 06, 2026 | Steve Mollman

A federal judge in Ohio has ordered the Trump administration to resume processing certain immigration benefit applications, delivering the latest legal setback to a broader effort by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to freeze or delay immigration cases.

U.S. District Judge Algenon L. Marbley granted a preliminary injunction Monday in a case brought by 25 foreign nationals who said their applications for work authorization, green cards and other immigration benefits had been stalled under USCIS and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) policies tied to countries covered by President Donald Trump's travel restrictions.

The decision could affect immigrants seeking green cards, work permits and other benefits while living in the United States and adds to a growing series of court rulings questioning whether the administration has the authority to impose broad application freezes.

The judge's order comes as federal courts continue to scrutinize immigration policies adopted under Trump's administration, particularly those tied to heightened vetting and national security concerns.

Marbley wrote that the challenged policies "indefinitely pause USCIS's final adjudication of pending immigration benefit applications submitted by foreign nationals from certain countries," while also treating nationality from those countries as a "significant and negative factor" in the adjudication process.

“The decision could affect immigrants seeking green cards, work permits and other benefits while living in the United States...”

Deportation would end their woes.

Something needs to be done about rat judges that make law instead of enforcing it.

Just about everything that is wrong with America at the federal level can be blamed on the worthless, corrupted Congress in the last 50 years, some awful presidents helped them along too.

RINOism, a political cancer.
