Supreme Court allows Trump to revoke protected status for thousands of Venezuelans
- On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court permitted the Trump administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status for approximately 350,000 Venezuelan residents in the United States.
- This decision follows Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's 2023 move to revoke TPS, challenged for violating federal procedural law and amid disputes over whether she had the authority to end the protections early.
- The affected Venezuelans, who are statistically less likely to commit crimes and more likely to hold degrees than the general U.S. population, gained TPS due to Venezuela's ongoing economic and political crisis under Nicolas Maduro.
- Legal advocates condemned the Supreme Court’s brief and unsigned ruling without explanation, calling it unprecedented in U.S. history for removing immigration status from such a large group of people at once.
- The ruling increases vulnerability to deportation and labor disruptions while the administration appeals; migrants and advocates predict economic and humanitarian harm amid ongoing instability in Venezuela.
