The decision to terminate Temporary Protected Status for more than 300,000 people signals that President Trump will continue to dismantle a program that aims to protect migrants from potentially dangerous countries.

The Trump administration is revoking an extension that grants deportation protections for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans in the United States through October 2026, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is ending protections that shielded roughly 350,000 Venezuelans from deportation, leaving them with two months before they lose their right to work in the U.S.
