The Trump administration's decision to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Venezuelans has triggered criticism from legal experts. With approximately 350,000 nationals from the South American country at risk of deportation once the protection expires in April and more later in the year, a new report concluded the termination of the program was arbitrary and politically motivated, ignoring that conditions in Venezuela have not improved to justify the decision.
The report, published by the National Foundation for American Policy (NFAP), described the termination of TPS as unlawful and motivated by the Trump administration's goal to carry out mass deportations.
