official capacity, et al.,

             Appellants


      BEFORE:       Millett, Pillard, and Katsas, Circuit Judges

ORDER

       Upon consideration of the emergency motion for stay pending appeal, which
includes a request for an administrative stay, the opposition thereto, and the reply; and
the motions to participate as amici curiae and the lodged amicus briefs, it is

        ORDERED that the district court’s July 2, 2025, orders be administratively stayed
pending further order of the court except as to the named individual plaintiffs.
Appellants represented in the district court that they will not employ Presidential
Proclamation 10888 “as a basis for removal of any of the named Plaintiffs currently in
the United States during the pendency of this litigation.” Resp. to Emergency Mot. to
Stay Removal [Dkt. 21] at 1. The purpose of this administrative stay is to give the court
sufficient opportunity to consider the emergency motion for stay pending appeal and
should not be construed in any way as a ruling on the merits of that motion. See D.C.
Circuit Handbook of Practice and Internal Procedures 33 (2024). It is
