The Supreme Court will hear case on Haiti and Syria TPS | Miami Herald
Members of the Haitian community hold signs in support for the extension of TPS and against deportation at a rally in North Miami on April 26, 2026, calling on federal decision-makers to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haitian nationals in the U.S. Carl Juste cjuste@miamiherald.com The U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments Wednesday on a case that could determine the future of hundreds of thousands of Haitians and Syrians, and over a million immigrants from other countries who are currently living in the United States.The high court will then decide whether the Trump administration should be able to terminate Temporary Protected Status for more than 300,000 Haitian beneficiaries of the program. TPS shields people from countries in turmoil from deportation and also gives them work permits.If the Supreme Court accepts the Trump administration’s argument that TPS decisions are not reviewable by the federal courts, that would mean that the Department of Homeland Security can go ahead and end TPS protections for 350,000 Haitians and 6,000 Syrian, as it has been trying to do for over a year amidst fierce litigation.In October, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration’s terminations of Venezuela’s TPS to go forward while litigation is ongoing. The Supreme Court gave no reasoning, did not weigh on the merits, and stripped over hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans of their TPS, leaving them vulnerable to detention and deportation. A lower federal court in California had determined that those terminations illegal. An appeals court in January upheld the lower court’s ruling, but the Supreme Court stay is still in effect.In South Florida, the heart of the Haitian community in the United States, the Supreme Court case is a local issue. On Sunday, the Family Action Network Movement, advocates and community members called on the Trump administration to protect TPS for Haiti in a rally in North Miami.READ MORE: Dozens rally in North Miami for Haiti TPS extension ahead of Supreme Court hearingBut beyond Haitians and Syrians, experts say the case could have weight for 1.3 million other immigrants from over a dozen countries, including Venezuelans. The Trump administration could use the Supreme Court ruling in this case to end other TPS designations as well and argue that they are not subject to judicial review. If the Supreme Court weighs in favor of beneficiaries, they can use the ruling to continue arguing against their terminations.“The stakes ar...
Supreme Court hears challenges to Haiti, Syria TPS - AOL
The Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. Ian Hutchinson / Unsplash(The Center Square) – The U.S. Supreme Court is hearing arguments in two cases to determine whether orders ending temporary protected status for Haiti and Syria are constitutional.Justices on the court are hearing Trump v. Miot and Mullin v. Doe. The two cases challenge an order from President Donald Trump that sought to terminate the special immigration status for Haitian and Syrian immigrants living in the United States.Temporary protected status is granted to immigrants who are fleeing war or natural disasters in their home countries. Haitian and Syrian nationals challenged the Trump administration's order.Kristi Noem, former Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, terminated the protected immigration status indiscriminately, a lower court judge said.The U.S. Supreme Court has previously allowed the Trump administration to end temporary protected status for immigrants from Venezuela.Carrie Severino, president of the Judicial Crisis Network, said she expects justices on the court to reach the same conclusion as they did for Venezuelan immigrants. Justices on the court are expected to decide if lower court judges have the authority to stop the Trump administration from stripping temporary status from the Haitian and Syrian immigrants."Congress made clear in the Immigration and Nationality Act that for Temporary Protected Status, '[t]here is no judicial review of any determination' regarding 'the designation, or termination or extension of a designation, of a foreign state,'" Severino said.Haiti was first granted temporary protected status in 2010, after an earthquake severely damaged the country’s infrastructure. In 2024, the Biden administration extended temporary protected status for Haiti, based on general concerns about security and humanitarian concerns in the country.Lawyers for the Haitian immigrants argued that the country is not safe for migrants to return. They also argued that the policy could cause damage to public safety in the United States.“Stripping TPS holders of their status may discourage them from reporting crimes or seeking medical care due to fear of detention or deportation,” the lawyers wrote.Syria was first designated temporary protected status in 2012, after the outbreak of the Syrian Civil War. In 2024, the Biden administration extended the cutoff date for Syrian migrants and gave amnesty to anyone who arrived in the U.S. since 2012. About 6,100 Syrian...
