The Supreme Court rules 6-3 that the Trump administration may terminate Temporary Protected Status for Haitian and Syrian nationals, clearing the way for deportations and restricting judicial oversight of TPS challenges.Justice Samuel Alito authors the majority opinion, finding that the TPS statute precludes courts from hearing nonconstitutional claims about designations and terminations and reversing lower-court stays that had preserved protections.The decision affects more than 350K Haitian and roughly 7K Syrian TPS holders and follows an administration campaign, led by the Department of Homeland Security, to rescind protections for people from multiple countries, including earlier actions on Venezuelan nationals.Advocates and lawmakers warn of immediate human consequences, point to internal Department of Homeland Security communications that critics say show improper procedure, and note that
House legislation to extend Haitian TPS is stalled in the
Senate.
