TL;DR

The trial over President Joe Biden's immigration policy, which allows a limited number of migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the U.S. on humanitarian grounds, is set to conclude on Friday. The program, which permits up to 30,000 people per month, is being challenged in a lawsuit filed by Texas and 20 other Republican-leaning states. The U.S. Justice Department argued that the program has helped migrants flee violence and instability, while also reducing strain on resources and border agents. The judge is not expected to rule immediately, and a decision could come months later.
