Salvadoran and Guatemalan exiles win U.S. legal status
The settlement ends deportations for about 500,000 Salvadoran and Guatemalan immigrants and grants work permits while asylum requests are reconsidered. It fulfills a 1985 lawsuit by hundreds of religious and refugee groups, marking a major sanctuary movement victory. Attorneys estimate up to 150,000 could apply again and 350,000 may seek asylum for the first time.
