Trump wants to end Temporary Protected Status for some immigrants. What is it?
- On Monday, the Supreme Court overturned a federal judge’s injunction, permitting the government to terminate Temporary Protected Status for approximately 350,000 Venezuelan immigrants in the United States.
- This decision follows administration officials' plan to let TPS for Venezuelans expire in April after a federal judge temporarily blocked it.
- In addition to Venezuelans, about 250,000 covered by an earlier TPS will lose protections in September, and roughly 500,000 Haitians face designation termination in August.
- Humanitarian parole, used for over 500,000 people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, has been requested to be ended by the administration, which has used parole programs for decades.
- These changes may compel affected immigrants to self-deport, prompting legal challenges by immigrant rights groups against the administration’s orders.
