The US Supreme Court has allowed President Trump's administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for around 350,000 Venezuelans, reversing a lower court's suspension. This decision supports the administration's stance that TPS is not open to judicial scrutiny. The Trump administration claims the current TPS designation is contrary to national interests, citing issues like gang membership risks. Despite this, many Democrats and advocates have expressed concern over the implications for Venezuelans already in the US, amidst ongoing political turmoil and economic hardships in Venezuela due to sanctions.
The ruling from the Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to revoke Temporary Protected Status for approximately 350,000 Venezuelans, impacting their deportation protections.
With this ruling, the Trump administration reinforces its position on immigration, arguing TPS designations are not subject to judicial review.
The Department of Homeland Security claims that protections provided under TPS were improperly granted to individuals linked to gangs and criminal activities.
Despite the ruling, concerns remain regarding the safety and wellbeing of Venezuelans facing deportation back to a crisis-torn country.
