A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration's plan to expand expedited removals of illegal immigrants, citing concerns over due process for those affected. The court ruled that the fast-track deportations would be unconstitutional and could lead to violations of the 14th Amendment's right to a fair hearing in immigration cases. The ruling applies to those who are living in the interior United States rather than at airports or border crossings. The decision marks a significant setback for the Trump administration's efforts to crack down on undocumented immigrants.
