US president Barack Obama’s Executive Orders, which would have allowed millions of undocumented immigrants who are the parents of citizens or of lawful permanent residents to remain legally in the US, were dealt a fatal blow on Thursday.
The Supreme Court announced it was split 4-4 on the plan, leaving in place a lower court ruling which blocks the protection from deportation of more than four million "undocumented" immigrants, including thousands of Irish people.
If you are an undocumented Irish person living in the US, The Irish Times would like to hear from you. You can submit your experiences and opinions on the court ruling today by email to emigration@irishtimes.com. Submissions may be published anonymously on irishtimes.com but all names and identifying details will not be used. Thank you.
