The U.S. Supreme Court has granted a request from the Trump administration to lift protections under the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program for approximately 350,000 Venezuelans, potentially opening the door to future deportations while litigation continues.
In a brief order issued Monday, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to proceed with plans to terminate TPS for Venezuelan nationals. The court’s decision temporarily halts a lower court ruling that had maintained protections for the group. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the sole dissenter.
The TPS program allows individuals from certain countries facing armed conflict or natural disaster to live and work legally in the United States. The administration argued that conditions in Venezuela no longer warranted continued TPS and that the executive branch has broad authority over immigration policy and foreign affairs.
U.S. District Judge Edward Chen had previously blocked the termination of TPS for Venezuelans, citing the potential disruption to hundreds of thousands of lives and economic consequences. However, the administration appealed, asserting that the TPS designation is discretionary and time-limited.
Solicitor General D. John Sauer emphasized that the end of TPS does not automatically result in deportation and that individuals may seek other legal avenues to remain in the U.S.
The ruling is part of a broader legal and policy debate over the administration’s approach to immigration. In recent weeks, similar requests have been made regarding humanitarian parole for nationals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
While the legal case over TPS continues, the Supreme Court's decision permits the administration to move forward with its policy change in the interim.
