Federal Judge Blocks Trump Administration From Ending Temporary Legal Status for Many Haitians

NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, JUL 2 – A judge ruled the early termination of Temporary Protected Status for over 520,000 Haitian migrants violated legal procedures, extending their protections through February 2026.

  • On Tuesday, a federal judge in New York determined that ending Temporary Protected Status prematurely for over 500,000 Haitians in the U.S. violated legal requirements.
  • The ruling followed the Trump administration's decision to terminate TPS six months before the previous February 3, 2026 deadline, prompting legal challenges over procedural violations.
  • TPS was originally granted after Haiti's 2010 earthquake and extended due to ongoing disasters, gang violence, and political unrest, allowing Haitians to live and work legally in the U.S.
  • The judge emphasized that beneficiaries reasonably expect protections through the fixed period, noting plaintiffs had jobs, school enrollments, and medical treatment with that expectation.
  • The ruling preserves TPS until at least February 3, 2026, preventing potential deportations and ensuring Temporary Protected Status remains temporary amid ongoing instability in Haiti.
