**US Halts Migrant Programs, Including One for Ukrainians**
The US Department of Homeland Security has stopped several programs that let immigrants stay in the country temporarily. This includes a program for people from Ukraine, according to The New York Times.
**President Trump‘s Plan**
Last year, President Donald Trump said he would make it harder for migrants to enter the US and remove millions of them. He planned to start the “largest deportation program in US history”. But now, his administration has put a hold on making decisions about these programs while they review them.
**Who Will Be Affected**
People fleeing countries like Ukraine, Cuba, Haiti, and Venezuela will not be able to enter the US because of this decision. The Trump administration thinks some of these programs were never allowed in the first place.
**Programs Suspended**
The “Uniting for Ukraine” program was one of those suspended. This program let Ukrainians temporarily stay in the US if they had a financial sponsor. President Trump also recently signed an order to stop people from entering the US who try to cross the border with Mexico illegally.
**Next Steps**
The Trump administration plans to start a large-scale immigration raid on major cities in the US, according to The Wall Street Journal.
