""A huge amount is at stake in that dispute because if the government is correct, then they can terminate TPS without conducting any country conditions review at all.""
""The sole correspondence from the State Department to DHS in the record is a two-sentence email concerning the TPS designations of four countries. The email never references country conditions.""
""Countries I'd written up as unsafe a few months earlier were supposed to be safe now. It was a complete farce.""
""Congress forbade federal courts to second-guess TPS determinations, no matter whether courts would cavil with the final outcome, the Secretary's decisional process, the substantive reasoning, or something else.""
Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is granted based on safety conditions in a country after disasters or conflicts. The government claims courts cannot review TPS decisions. An attorney representing TPS holders argues that if the government is correct, it could terminate TPS without proper reviews. Court documents reveal limited review when TPS was terminated for several countries. An anonymous former immigration official criticized the process as a farce. The government maintains that federal courts cannot question TPS determinations, regardless of the reasoning behind them. Approximately 1.3 million people in the U.S. hold TPS.
