US appeals court allows Trump administration to remove deportation protections for Afghans, Cameroonians
UNITED STATES, JUL 22 – The U.S. Court of Appeals allowed ending TPS for about 19,500 Afghans and Cameroonians despite ongoing legal challenges and concerns about safety and national security.
- On July 21, a federal judge lifted an order blocking the Trump administration from ending temporary protected status for about 14,600 Afghans and 7,900 Cameroonians in the U.S.
- The administration moved in April to terminate TPS, citing improved security and economic conditions in Afghanistan and Cameroon despite arguments about ongoing threats and crises.
- The temporary protected status for Cameroonians is scheduled to conclude on August 4, while courts have ordered swift hearings in response to CASA's lawsuit alleging the termination decision was predetermined and motivated by racial bias.
- AfghanEvac expressed deep alarm over the ruling, with its president warning that affected individuals risk detention, deportation, or forced hiding as their legal protections remain unsettled.
- The ruling allows the administration to begin deportations after Monday night and suggests affected TPS holders may seek asylum or other legal protections amid ongoing legal challenges.
