(AmericanProsperity.com) – The Supreme Court just delivered a massive victory for immigration enforcement, unanimously ruling that federal courts cannot review visa revocations.
This decision empowers the government to crack down on fraudulent marriages and protect the borders from those attempting to exploit the immigration system.
In a 9-0 decision, the Supreme Court affirmed that the federal government has complete authority over immigration visa revocations, particularly when it comes to scrutinizing fraudulent marriages.
This ruling in Bouarfa v. Mayorkas reinforces the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) power to revoke visas without interference from activist judges.
The case involved a Palestinian man whose visa was revoked by DHS due to a previous fraudulent marriage.
His American wife, Amina Bouarfa, challenged the revocation, but the Supreme Court shut down her attempt to circumvent immigration laws.
Bouarfa filed another petition after the revocation, which could potentially be subject to judicial review upon another denial.
However, the Supreme Court ruling continues to highlight the significant discretion given to DHS to revoke visas for “good and sufficient cause,” without courtroom interventions.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson emphasized that visa revocations are discretionary agency decisions that are not subject to judicial review.
This dictate is a significant win for those who have long argued for stricter immigration controls.
It gives the DHS the necessary tools to combat immigration fraud, particularly sham marriages used to gain unlawful entry into the country.
The decision also highlights the importance of appointing conservative judges who interpret the law as written rather than legislating from the bench.
Even liberal Justice Jackson recognized the clear language of the law, describing the DHS Secretary’s authority to revoke visas as “a quintessential grant of discretion.”
While the left may cry foul, claiming this ruling is unfair to illegal aliens, true patriots understand that protecting the borders and ensuring the integrity of the immigration system is crucial for national security and preserving American values.
