• Trump administration and Supreme Court move to terminate Temporary Protected Status for Haitian immigrants — The Trump administration, backed by a 6–3 Supreme Court ruling in June 2026, is moving to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for more than 330,000 Haitian immigrants currently living and working legally in the US. The decision affects nursing assistants, healthcare workers, and other essential service workers. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has argued TPS holders should seek other legal pathways, despite no direct route from TPS to permanent residency and asylum approval rates under Trump falling below 5%. The US State Department maintains a non-travel advisory for Haiti due to ongoing violence and national emergency.
