The Trump administration has moved to end Temporary Protected Status for thousands of immigrants from multiple countries, arguing that conditions in their home nations have improved enough to allow safe returns. The policy affects people from seven countries who have been living and working legally in the United States under humanitarian protections.
Since taking office in January 2025, President Donald Trump‘s administration has announced the termination of TPS for citizens of Afghanistan, Haiti, Venezuela, Honduras, Nicaragua, Nepal, and Cameroon. The Department of Homeland Security has cited improved conditions in these places as justification for ending the protections that shield people from deportation.
