Trump Targets Temporary Protected Status for Over a Million Migrants
Former President Trump has indicated plans to potentially revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS), which currently safeguards over one million migrants in the U.S. from deportation. This policy change could have significant repercussions for immigrant communities, many of whom are already in a state of panic about the future. Advocacy groups are voicing concerns, stating that the promise of a safe haven for refugees must not be undermined. The move is set to particularly impact migrants from countries experiencing ongoing turmoil, including those in areas like Springfield that rely heavily on this status for legal residency.
