Amy Howe for SCOTUSBlog reviews the Supreme Court ruling late last week clearing lifting staying a lower court injunction and allowing the Trump administration to strip Venezuelan nationals of Temporary Protected Status (TPS). In the order, the justices paused a ruling by a federal judge that barred the Department of Homeland Security, from terminating that status. The Court previously blocked an order that the DHS leave TPS in place while the litigation challenging its end continued. “The same result that we reached in May is appropriate here,” the court wrote.
