Judges Clear Path for Termination of TPS for South Sudan and Myanmar
The rulings affect about 232 South Sudanese nationals and roughly 4,000 people from Myanmar, according to Reuters.
- Federal judges in Boston, Massachusetts and Chicago, Illinois rejected immigrant-rights advocates' efforts to maintain Temporary Protected Status for South Sudan and Myanmar, clearing the way for President Donald Trump's administration to end these protections.
- The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling curtailed lower courts' ability to block the Department of Homeland Security efforts to end TPS for about twelve countries, arguing the executive branch maintained broad authority over the program.
- Nearly 4,000 people from Myanmar and 232 South Sudanese individuals face termination of these designations, losing protections previously granted due to armed conflict and political turmoil since a 2021 coup.
- Advocates warned that recipients previously granted an 'administrative stay' now face potential deportation to unstable nations; James Percival, DHS General Counsel, noted that TPS terminations for Ethiopian and Somalian nationals remain blocked by courts.
- Percival criticized the remaining court-blocked terminations, writing that "Every day these 'administrative stays' are in effect is a day the American people are denied what they voted for," as the administration pushes for full implementation.
