US judge halts Trump plan to end protections for 350,000 Haitians
A federal judge paused the termination of TPS for 350,000 Haitians, citing likely success of legal challenges over racial animus and inadequate procedural compliance.
- The TPS designation for Haiti is set to expire Tuesday, and the Department of Homeland Security announced last June it would terminate TPS for about 500,000 Haitians.
- Officials argued that TPS was not meant as a de facto asylum program, with DHS said conditions in Haiti had improved enough to allow returns and Tricia McLaughlin calling the step `restoring integrity`.
- So many attendees turned up Monday at Springfield's St. John Missionary Baptist Church that a fire marshal asked 150 to leave after exceeding the 700-person capacity.
- Without TPS, many people already in the U.S. can't work and face immediate economic hardship, as Springfield Haitian community members report not sending kids to school while volunteers deliver food and parents sign caregiver affidavits.
- Advocates say federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis has worsened fear, with bomb threats following Trump's 2024 campaign comments in Springfield, a city of about 59,000 people.
