Washington.- <\/strong>The Supreme Court <\/strong>on Monday allowed U.S. President Donald Trump to revoke the immigration program that grants temporary legal status in the country to more than 300,000 Venezuelans<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Executive’s lawyers had asked the highest judicial instance to annul an order from a lower court judge in California against the decision to end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS)<\/strong> for migrants from that South American country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Administration had argued that TPS for Venezuela goes against the “national interest” of the U.S. and that the Justice Department does not have the authority to decide on “urgent” immigration policy matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The litigation of the case is scheduled to continue now in lower courts.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

TPS is a migratory program managed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)<\/a><\/strong>, which protects from deportation and gives work permits to people from countries that are going through serious humanitarian situations or natural disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shortly after assuming power on January 20th, the Trump Administration<\/strong> decided to end TPS for Venezuelans, and the Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, described the beneficiaries of this program as “miserable” and criminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of March, a federal judge in California decided to block the Executive’s attempt to end TPS, alleging that the decision causes “irreparable harm” to those who have benefited from said protection and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the Administration of Democrat Joe Biden (2021-2025),<\/strong> the DHS decided to extend this benefit to Venezuelans arguing that Venezuela was going through a “humanitarian emergency” caused by a political and economic crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the newspaper The Washington Post,<\/strong> the Republican Executive stopped that extension in February<\/strong> before it came into effect. Without it, those protections were going to end for some migrants in April and for others in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The White House<\/strong> has upheld the TPS granted to other nationalities such as Salvadorans, which protects some 200,000 immigrants since 2001.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
