The Department of Homeland Security announced on Friday that approximately 600,000 Venezuelans and over 230,000 Salvadorans residing in the United States have been granted an 18-month extension to their Temporary Protected Status (TPS). This decision comes shortly before President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, raising concerns about potential changes to immigration policies.
Under President Biden's administration, TPS has received strong support, with expansions benefiting around 1 million individuals. While TPS faces uncertainty under the incoming administration, the recent extensions provide relief for many immigrants.
