The termination notices are being sent by email to about 532,000 people who came to the country under the humanitarian parole program created by the Biden administration. They arrived with financial sponsors and were given two-year permits to live and work in the U.S.

Immigrant advocates in South Florida call on President Biden to extend protected status to more than 300,000 Nicaraguans before Trump takes office.

Hundreds of Nicaraguan religious leaders, students, activists, dissidents and journalists are ‘stateless.’ President Daniel Ortega's government stripped them of their citizenship, homes and government pensions.

Hundreds of Nicaraguan religious leaders, students, activists, dissidents and journalists are 'stateless.' President Daniel Ortega's government stripped them of their citizenship, homes and government pensions. They are scattered across the United States and other countries, in limbo as they struggle to recover from physical and psychological trauma.

Nicaragua’s President Daniel Ortega is proposing a constitutional reform that would officially make him and his wife, current Vice President Rosario Murillo, “copresidents” of the Central American nation.
