Summary
Thursday’s ruling let the Trump administration end Temporary Protected Status for Haitian and Syrian migrants, removing work and residency protections many Haitians have held since 2010 and Syrians since 2012.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the move betrays Trump’s pledge to target criminals, arguing it instead hits nurses, health care workers, cleaners and restaurant workers.
House Democrats widened the attack to the court’s asylum decision, with Pete Aguilar saying asylum is a long-standing legal right and pointing to House-passed legislation to extend TPS protections for Haitians now awaiting Senate action.
The White House defended the rulings, saying TPS was always temporary and the asylum system has been abused, casting the decisions as part of a broader push to tighten deportation and immigration enforcement.
