Federal judge blocks Trump administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Ethiopian nationals
U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy ruled that the Trump administration cannot terminate Temporary Protected Status for approximately 5,000 Ethiopian nationals. The judge found that DHS disregarded statutory procedures and provided pretextual rationale for ending the protection. DHS had announced in December that Ethiopian TPS would end, giving recipients 60 days to voluntarily depart.
