Judge allows Trump administration to end deportation protections for thousands of Ethiopians
- On Tuesday, District Judge Brian Murphy allowed the President Donald Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status for over 5,000 Ethiopians living and working in the United States.

- Although Murphy dismissed procedural challenges, he allowed plaintiffs to continue litigating claims that the termination violated the Fifth Amendment by targeting migrants based on national origin or race.
