The Temporary Protected Status program may effectively be over. Here's what we know.

The Supreme Court issued a ruling that allows the Trump administration to remove Temporary Protected Status from residents of countries currently designated under the program. Temporary Protected Status is a federal program that allows foreign nationals from designated countries experiencing armed conflict, environmental disasters, or other extraordinary conditions to live and work in the United States temporarily. The ruling affects hundreds of thousands of people from the remaining countries with active designations under the program. The decision clarifies the administration's legal authority to terminate these designations, though it does not require immediate action.
