President Donald Trump scored a massive victory at the Supreme Court, even getting traditionally liberal justices in his favor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Monday, the court lifted a lower court injunction that was preventing the president from stripping the protected legal status of hundreds of thousands of migrants currently residing in the United States, Fox News reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision was 8 \u2013 1 in favor of what the president wanted, with the only dissent coming from Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who former President Joe Biden appointed, Fox News reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe decision clears the way for the Trump administration to move forward with its plans to terminate<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Biden-era Temporary Protected Status (TPS) protections for roughly 300,000 Venezuelan migrants living in the U.S. and allows the administration to move forward with plans to immediately remove these migrants, which lawyers for the administration argued they should be able to do,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer spoke before the Supreme Court this month, he said the lower court had overstepped its bounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe district court\u2019s reasoning is untenable,\u201d he said, saying that the program \u201cimplicates particularly discretionary, sensitive, and foreign-policy-laden judgments of the Executive Branch regarding immigration policy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem revoked the Temporary Protected Status in a February memo with an effective date in April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn October 3, 2023, Venezuela was newly designated for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) due to extraordinary and temporary conditions preventing the safe return of Venezuelan nationals. After reviewing current country conditions and consulting with appropriate<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U.S. Government agencies, the Secretary of Homeland Security has determined that Venezuela no longer meets the conditions for the 2023 designation. Specifically, it has been determined that it is contrary to the national interest to permit the covered Venezuelan nationals to remain temporarily in the United States. Therefore, the 2023 TPS designation of Venezuela is being terminated,\u201d the memo said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn March 9, 2021, then Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas designated Venezuela for TPS based on his determination that there existed \u201cextraordinary and temporary conditions\u201d in Venezuela that prevented nationals of Venezuela from returning in safety and that permitting such aliens to remain temporarily in the United States is not contrary to the U.S. national interest,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn September 8, 2022, then Secretary Mayorkas extended the Venezuela 2021 TPS designation for 18 months,\u201d the memo said. \u201cOn October 3, 2023, Secretary Mayorkas extended the Venezuela 2021 TPS designation for another 18 months with an expiration date of September 10, 2025, and separately newly designated Venezuela for 18 months, a decision the former Secretary called a \u2018redesignation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019 (Venezuela 2023 designation) with an expiration of April 2, 2025, resulting in two separate and concurrent Venezuela TPS designations. See Extension and Redesignation of Venezuela for Temporary Protected Status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn January 17, 2025, Secretary Mayorkas issued a notice extending the 2023 designation of Venezuela for TPS for 18 months. The notice was based on then Secretary Mayorkas\u2019s January 10, 2025 determination that the conditions for the designation continued to be met. See INA 244(b)(3)(A), (C), 8 U.S.C. 1254a(b)(3)(A), (C). In the January 2025 notice, Secretary Mayorkas did not expressly extend or terminate the 2021 Venezuela designation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead, the notice allowed for a consolidation of filing processes such that all eligible Venezuela TPS beneficiaries (whether under the 2021 or 2023 designations) could obtain TPS through the same extension date of October 2, 2026,\u201d the DHS memo said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn January 28, 2025, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem vacated former Secretary Mayorkas\u2019s January 10, 2025 decision, restoring the status quo that preceded that decision,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U.S. District Judge Edward Chen of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California halted Noem\u2019s plan in March, saying that the portrayal of the migrants as possible criminals was \u201cbaseless and smacks of racism.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
