A big win in SCOTUS today! Temporary mans just that.
Of course the three leftists don't know the meaning of the word 'temporary'.
The entire law needs to be repealed by Congress as all it has been is a backdoor to immigration particularly from the third world.
Hopefully, Trump will NOT use this for Venezuelans after the terrible earthquakes, but rather provide the necessary aid to them at home.
The Supreme Court on Thursday cleared the way for the federal government to remove protections for citizens of Haiti and Syria under a federal program that allows foreign citizens to stay in the United States when the U.S. government believes that it is not safe for them to return to their homes. By a vote of 6-3 in Mullin v. Doe, the justices paused rulings by federal courts in Washington, D.C., and New York that had barred the Trump administration from ending the designations under the program, known as Temporary Protected Status, for Haiti and Syria. Instead, the court ruled that the federal law creating the TPS program bars courts from reviewing the determinations by then-Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem to end the TPS designations for those countries. The court also ruled that the Haitian TPS holders are likely to lose on the claim that Noem ended TPS status for Haiti on the basis that the country’s citizens are overwhelmingly Black and therefore violated the Constitution’s guarantee of equal treatment.
Writing for the majority, Justice Samuel Alito wrote that the language of the TPS statute prohibiting judicial review “is clear, and its plain meaning is very broad.”
Justice Elena Kagan dissented, in an opinion joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson. She wrote that at this stage of the litigation, the Haitian and Syrian TPS beneficiaries “ask for only one thing: that they may stay in this country while they continue to litigate their claims. … [T]hey are entitled to that relief, and should not instead be consigned to devastating, and indeed life-threatening, injury.”
Congress enacted the Temporary Protected Status program in 1990. The program gives the Department of Homeland Security the power to designate a country’s citizens as eligible to remain in the U.S. and work if they cannot return safely to their own country because of a natural disaster, armed conflict, or other “extraordinary and temporary” conditions there.
Then-Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano made both of the designations at the center of this case. In 2010, shortly after a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti, killing more than 300,000 people and causing catastrophic damage, she designated Haiti under the TPS program. Napolitano made a similar designation for Syria two years later, pointing to “deteriorating conditions” there after a “brutal crackdown” by Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad against anti-government dissenters.
Napolitano’s designations of Haiti and Syria initially lasted for 18 months, but they were repeatedly extended until 2025, when Noem announced that the Trump administration planned to end both designations. Noem said that a new Syrian government was attempting to “move the country to a stable institutional governance,” and that she had determined that “there are no extraordinary and temporary conditions in Haiti that prevent Haitian nationals … from returning in safety.” And in both cases, she indicated that it would be “contrary to the national interest” to allow the countries’ TPS designation to remain in place.
