Immigration advocates offer insight, impact of U.S. ruling on TPS

The ruling sends the case back to lower court, while an administrative stay keeps deportation protections for about 4,500 Ethiopians in place.

  • On Wednesday, the First Circuit overturned a lower court's order blocking the Trump administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Ethiopia, though a district court stay keeps the designation in place for more than 4,500 people.
  • Citing a Supreme Court decision last month that limited judicial review of TPS terminations, the appeals court reversed the April order halting the administration's Ethiopia-related plans.
  • District Judge Brian Murphy's July 24 order maintains the status quo, declaring the termination "null, void, and of no legal effect" during the stay pending resolution of the plaintiffs' motion.
  • In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court previously allowed TPS termination for Haiti and Syria, affecting more than 350,000 and 7,000 people respectively, establishing legal precedent for Ethiopia.
  • As the case returns to the district court, DHS special counsel James Percival expressed skepticism about the remand, though Judge Murphy is expected to enter a new postponement order during proceedings.
