(The Guardian) Trump revokes temporary protected status for more than 300,000 Venezuelans – report
The Trump administration has revoked temporary protected status (TPS) for more than 300,000 Venezuelans in the US, the New York Times reports.
The federal TPS program allows for people to temporarily stay in the US if they cannot return safely to their home country. It is available for people fleeing ongoing armed conflict, environmental disasters, or extraordinary and temporary conditions.
Government documents obtained by the outlet read: After reviewing country conditions and considering whether permitting Venezuelan nationals covered by the 2023 designation is contrary to the national interest of the United States, in consultation with the appropriate U.S. government agencies, the secretary of homeland security has determined that Venezuela no longer continues to meet the conditions for the 2023 designation.
The termination means that those under TPS from Venezuela who received the protections in 2023 will lose their temporary status 60 days after the government publishes the termination notice, according to the Times. It also increases the number of people without any formal immigration status in the US.
