Overview
- The U.S. Supreme Court has lifted lower court injunctions, enabling the Trump administration to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 350,000 Venezuelans and CHNV parole protections for over 500,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
- The court's 8-1 decision, with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissenting, allows the revocations to proceed while appeals continue in the Ninth Circuit.
- U.S. District Judges Edward Chen and Indira Talwani had previously blocked the revocations, citing procedural flaws and concerns of racial animus in the administration's rationale.
- Miami-area Republican lawmakers have called for individualized reviews of migrant cases to avoid mass deportations, emphasizing the contributions of long-established immigrant communities.
- Litigation on the legality of these revocations is ongoing, with further hearings scheduled in the Ninth Circuit and lower courts in the coming months.
