A federal judge has stepped in to bar the Trump administration's plan to deport 5,000 Ethiopians from the United States, ruling that the policy was carried out without following proper legal procedures and could not proceed as planned.
US District Judge Brian Murphy cited that the Trump administration's termination of the Temporary Protected Status (TPS), a designation that allowed citizens from 13 nations to live and work in the United States, was done 'without regard for the process delineated by Congress,' per AP News.
