Overview

  • The injunction shields roughly 60,000 Honduran, Nicaraguan and Nepalese TPS holders from imminent termination
  • Judge Trina L. Thompson ruled that DHS did not objectively review country conditions such as political violence and recent hurricanes before ending designations
  • The ruling warns that lifting TPS could trigger widespread job losses, loss of medical coverage, family separations, deportations and a $1.4 billion drop in economic output
  • Under the administration of President Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, TPS protections for about 350,000 Venezuelans, 500,000 Haitians and 160,000 Ukrainians have already been revoked
  • TPS protections will remain in place pending a November 18, 2025 hearing that will examine the legality of the termination decisions
