Overview

• The injunction delays the scheduled expirations for about 51,000 Hondurans, 7,000 Nepalis and 3,000 Nicaraguans
• Thompson concluded that statements by Secretary Noem and President Trump demonstrated discriminatory intent behind the revocation
• Temporary Protected Status prevents deportation and grants work authorization, losses that holders would face if protections were rescinded
• The Department of Homeland Security has appealed the ruling and will argue before Thompson on Nov. 18 over Secretary Noem’s revocation order
• This decision adds to a series of federal injunctions that have stalled the administration’s TPS rollbacks after the Supreme Court allowed Venezuelan terminations in May
