It’s wild how hard it is to end something with the word “temporary” in it
TPS for Haitians officially ends, putting thousands out of work and in limbo
A federal judge on Wednesday took the final step in allowing the Trump administration to terminate temporary protected status for 350,000 Haitians, meaning many are likely to lose their jobs and be at risk of deportation back to a country the United States says remains dangerous.
U.S. District Judge Ana C. Reyes of the District of Columbia had enjoined the administration in February from ending TPS for Haitians, and a federal appeals court had refused to lift the ban. Reyes reversed her decision after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in June that federal law bars judicial review of TPS determinations.
The high court’s ruling means TPS “is no longer in effect,” Reyes wrote in her new order Wednesday. However, the judge said she would allow attorneys to continue seeking discovery and litigating their underlying claims that the Trump administration terminated TPS because of their clients’ race.
The Supreme Court’s ruling left open a narrow path for TPS holders to challenge the loss of their status on constitutional grounds. An attorney representing the immigrants involved in the Supreme Court case said the team is considering filing a new lawsuit.
Oh, FFS. This sh*t is just going to keep going on and on, isn’t it? The Washington Post headline was exciting, then the article just let me down. Seriously, this is deranged. They’ve been here a long time, well beyond what’s reasonable. Why are other countries not taking them in?
Immigration experts said that even before Reyes’s amended ruling, companies had begun large-scale layoffs of Haitian TPS holders, who now face the possibility of detention and deportation. Another federal judge in New York is expected to soon allow the Trump administration to formally end TPS for an estimated 6,000 Syrians to comply with the Supreme Court.
About 200,000 Haitians with TPS hold jobs, with large concentrations of workers in health care, food service, warehousing, retail and long-term caregiving, according to an analysis of government data by the immigration advocacy group FWD.us. Business owners have been preparing for weeks by raising sign-on bonuses, cutting shifts and making inroads at community colleges and high schools to hire new staff, industry leaders said.
Well, there’s at least that.
Haitians!!!
Remember Sept 2024?
Springfield Ohio the great Haitian dog eating his that blew up the Internet?
Teach and his right-wing pals were totally convinced that Haitians were cooking all of the dogs in town.
Silly children horrified by their self induced fears and fantasies
“They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the pets!”
These hoaxes about “undesirables” pop up from time to time, just rarely coming from the Vice-president and President of the United States of America!!
