The US Supreme Court has authorized the Trump administration to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for approximately 350,000 Haitian and 6,000 Syrian immigrants. The conservative-majority court ruled that existing law does not grant the judiciary authority to review executive branch decisions concerning TPS designations. This decision, supported by six conservative justices against their progressive colleagues, effectively removes protection from deportation for these individuals. The ruling impacts hundreds of thousands who had been shielded under the TPS program, which offers temporary residency to foreign nationals from countries experiencing armed conflict, natural disasters, or other extraordinary conditions.
