Trump Administration Asks Supreme Court To End Syria TPS
2 weeks ago
The Trump administration has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to allow it to end Temporary Protected Status for migrants from Syria. The Justice Department filed an emergency appeal seeking to lift a New York judge’s ruling that blocked the Department of Homeland Security from terminating the protections.
About 6,100 Syrians currently have legal status in the United States under the program, which was granted to people fleeing armed conflict in their home country. If the high court sides with the administration, those migrants could lose their authorization to work in the U.S. and face possible deportation while legal challenges continue.
