- DHS terminated Temporary Protected Status for Haitian nationals — The Department of Homeland Security announced termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for more than half a million Haitians in the United States, effective September 2, 2025. DHS argued that conditions in Haiti have improved sufficiently for return. The termination gives affected individuals approximately 2.5 months to leave the country or find alternative legal status.
- Immigration lawyer disputed Haiti safety claims — Immigration lawyer Aaron Reichlin-Melnick stated that the Trump administration's claim that Haiti is safe for return contradicts reality. He noted that large portions of Haiti are controlled by gangs, civil governance has collapsed, gangs still control large parts of Port-au-Prince, the international security force is failing, and displacement has reached record levels.

- Ninth person died in ICE custody in 2025 — Johnny Noviello, 49, died in ICE custody, becoming the ninth person to die in ICE custody since the beginning of 2025 and the fourth to die in a Florida facility. Daily Beast columnist Julia Davis reported the death.
- ICE detention deaths surge to 13 in fiscal 2025, tracking toward deadliest year on record — Two additional deaths in ICE custody—a 75-year-old Cuban man and a 49-year-old Canadian (Johnny Noviello, found unresponsive June 23 in Miami)—bring the 2025 fiscal-year total to 13 deaths, compared to 12 for all of fiscal 2024. Advocates attribute the spike to deteriorating conditions as ICE detains over 56,000 people (140% of stated capacity) while pursuing aggressive deportation targets. At current pace, 2025 could see 26+ deaths. The Canadian government has requested information from US authorities regarding Noviello's death.
