Supreme Court clears way to end TPS program protections for Haitians and other immigrants

The Temporary Protected Status program is a step closer to officially ending. The Supreme Court will send the TPS case back to a lower court so that judge can implement the order, giving the Trump administration the green light to cancel the program. That means many Haitians who had this designation may no longer be able to legally live or work in the United States. An attorney who represented some Haitians said many are afraid to be deported to their home country. “All that all the gangs and warlords care about is: Have you spent time in the states? And if the answer is yes, there's an assumption that you've got enough money that you're worth kidnapping," said Geoff Pipoly, lead counsel in the Haitian TPS case.
