Migrants from several countries could lose deportation protections under the Trump administration
Courts are split on Trump administration’s attempts to end Temporary Protected Status for immigrants, with some rulings citing procedural flaws and racial animus, while others uphold revocations.
- This month the Trump administration sought to end TPS for multiple countries, with the U.S. Supreme Court twice allowing the revocation for Venezuela amid ongoing lower-court blocks.

- An appeals panel lifted a lower court's block on Nepal, Honduras and Nicaragua, rejecting claims that the revocations were arbitrary, while Judge Patti Saris found South Sudan's termination unlawfully pretextual.
- The administration continues seeking terminations for additional countries, prolonging litigation and injunctions across federal courts and affecting TPS recipients whose protections date back nearly 16 years in Haiti.
- Legal experts say the trouble reflects both procedural errors and judicial policy moves, while commentators warn well-funded left‑wing litigation in liberal jurisdictions will push cases to the Supreme Court.
