Over 11k Afghans to lose Temporary Protected Status
After granting a temporary stay that expires at midnight, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals decided President Donald Trump's administration can move forward with its plans to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for up to 11,700 Afghans and 5,200 Cameroonians.
TPS Afghans will expire at midnight, and protections for Cameroonians will expire on August 4.
In the two-page order, the court says the immigrant advocacy organization CASA has "stated a plausible claim for relief with regard to the alleged 'preordained' decision to terminate temporary protected status" for both countries. But the court said CASA has failed to provide sufficient evidence to warrant a postponement of the termination while the case continues in federal court.
