Appeals court blocks Trump administration from ending legal protections for 600,000 Venezuelans

A three-judge panel ruled the Department of Homeland Security likely exceeded its authority in ending protections, affecting 600,000 Venezuelans amid ongoing legal challenges.

  • A federal appeals court ruled that the Trump administration likely acted unlawfully by rolling back protections for 600,000 Venezuelans in the U.S.
  • The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a decision by U.S. District Judge Edward Chen, finding that Kristi Noem likely lacked the authority to cancel the protections for eligible Venezuelans.
  • Lawyers for the Venezuelans and the National TPS Alliance called the ruling a victory, although it does not provide an immediate solution.
  • U.S. Circuit Judge Kim McLane Wardlaw emphasized that sudden changes contradict the purpose of Temporary Protected Status, which is meant to provide safety and protection from deportation.
