A federal judge has just halted the Trump administration’s push to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 60,000 immigrants from Nepal, Honduras, and Nicaragua. This means no deportations for now!
The protections were set to expire in August and September, but Judge Trina Thompson ruled they’ll stay in place while the case moves forward. She slammed the administration for acting without properly reviewing unsafe conditions in those countries.
Ending TPS could have hurt families, stripped health insurance, and cost the U.S. economy $1.4 billion. The judge also called out racial bias behind the move. For many immigrants, this is a much-needed pause in the fight to keep their lives stable.
