Supreme Court ruling clears way to end TPS for Haiti and Syria
Jun 25, 2025
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Mullin v. Doe, allowing the Trump administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status for Haiti and Syria, overturning lower court rulings that had blocked the terminations. Courts in New York and Washington DC had previously found the administration failed to follow required legal procedures. Documents revealed former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem ignored her department's recommendation to extend TPS for Haiti despite ongoing danger. At least 700,000 people lost TPS status in 2025, with the number of TPS holders dropping from about 1.3 million to under 300,000.
