A federal appeals court on Sept. 17 rejected an attempt by the Trump administration to set aside a judge’s order ruling that it unlawfully rolled back temporary protected status (TPS) for Venezuelans living in the United States.
The San Francisco-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit declined to pause the Sept. 5 ruling by U.S. District Judge Edward Chen that the administration may not cancel their TPS and that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s decision to do so was unlawful.
