The Supreme Court handed Donald Trump a major win, voting 8–1 to lift a lower court order that blocked his administration from ending protections for Venezuelan migrants. The ruling clears the way to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for about 300,000 people, allowing removals to begin immediately.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem revoked the Biden-era TPS program earlier this year, citing national interest, but a federal judge halted her plan in March. With the Supreme Court’s decision, Trump now has the authority to move forward, despite criticism that the policy unfairly targets migrants.
