Kristi Noem ending deportation protections for 76K Hondurans, Nicaraguans
The Trump administration moved Monday to end protected status for migrants who came to the US from Honduras and Nicaragua -- offering a plane ticket and a $1,000-per-person "exit bonus" to anyone who self-deports immediately.
The Honduran government, through its Foreign Ministry, declared Monday, July 7, its "lament" for the decision of the administration of US President Donald Trump to cancel the Temporary Protection Status (TPS) for Honduras. This measure, which will enter into force within 60 days, will directly impact thousands of Hondurans who were under this migratory protection, so the announcement has generated deep concern in the Central American country.
