A federal judge in California temporarily blocked the Trump administration from ending legal status and exile for thousands of migrants from Honduras, Nepal and Nicaragua.
While it can be suspended by a High Court, Ruling There is a vengeance for over 60,000 migrants, which were previously allowed by the US government to legally and in some cases, from the end of the 1990s, under the temporary protected position program, living and working in the country.
Nepal immigrants nominated at the TPS program were prescribed to lose their legal status next week.
American District Judge Tina Thompson at San Francisco ordered the postponement of TPS termination for these countries to be postponed at least 18 November when he set hearing a hearing on the merits of the trump administration’s decision challenging the decision of the Trump administration. Thompson said that the delay could be extended beyond November 18.
Buced by the Congress in 1990, the TPS Homeland allows the Department of Security to give a temporary safe shelter – as the exile and the working authority – armed conflict, migrants from countries surrounded by an environmental disaster or other crises.
People enrolled in TP are generally immigrant who illegally entered the US or who came legally on temporary visas and then applied for a human program.
The Trump administration has demanded a severe reduction of TPS programs, arguing that some of them are contrary to national interests and have been very long, despite their temporary nature and better circumstances in the respective countries.
For example, the administration has noted that for TPS programs Honduras And Nicaragua The first time was built in 1999 after the storm Mich, when there was a terrible flood in Central America and thousands of people died. The TPS program for Nepal was announced in 2015, when an earthquake occurred in a small Asian country. DHS Secretary Christie Nom has said that all three countries have recovered from those environmental disasters.
But San Francisco -based federal judge Thompson said that the TPS holders prosecuting the Trump administration were likely to succeed in their arguments that NoM’s decisions “predictables” did not consider the situation of situations in Honduras, Nepal and Nicaragua completely.
Thompson, who was appointed by former President Biden, also found that the plaintiff was likely to argue that NoM’s decisions were “inspired by racial anims.” Thompson cited statements by NOEM that he stated the TPS program and the immigrants associated with criminality stereotype.
The judge also referred to a comment made by President Trump during the 2024 campaign, stating that the migrants who illegally entered the US were poisoning our country’s blood. “
Thompson wrote in his order, “Freedom to live fearlessly, freedom, and American dreams. It is all plaintiff. Instead, they are left for atonement for their race, left because of their names, and purifies their blood. The court disagrees.”
Representatives of DHS did not immediately respond to the request to comment on Thursday’s court order, including the judge’s suggestions that the TPS expiry was associated with the racial anemus.
According to official government data, there are 72,000 Honduns, 12,700 Nepal And 4,000 Nicaraguan Nominated in TPS Policy. Some of them, however, are capable of receiving a green card, or valid permanent American residence, including 21,000 of the Honduran TPS holders. According to government data, the estimated 5,500 and 1,100 TPS holders of Nepal and Nicaragua respectively have also become permanent residents.
Ever since Mr. Trump took over, his administration has announced a plan to abolish TPS for thousands of migrants including Afghan, Cameron, Haitian and Venezuela.
Federal courts have blocked some termination, but Supreme Court Administration allowed More than 300,000 Venezuela’s TPS to cancel the security.
