Wereld · TPS ends · ArchiefHundreds of Thousands of Haitians Lose Status as TPS EndsGeschreven 7 september 2026 om 21:22 UTCKijkenTranscript0:00As of Wednesday afternoon, temporary0:01protected [music] status for Haitians is0:03officially over. A federal judge lifted0:05the order that had blocked protections0:07from ending, and hundreds of thousands0:09of Haitians lost their legal status,0:10[music] their work authorization, and0:12their shield from removal, all at once.0:14That number is hundreds of thousands, a0:16population that was fully legal until0:18the judge's decision removed their0:19protections this week. The practical0:21effect is immediate and cascading.0:22[music] A parent may be unable to drive0:24to a job that they can no longer legally0:26perform, while families with [music]0:28mixed immigration status must think0:30twice about a routine traffic stop0:31because it could now lead to separation.0:33The chain of events started with a0:35federal judge's ruling,0:36>> [music]0:37>> and by Wednesday afternoon, the legal0:38ground shifted for a population that0:40previously had temporary stability.0:48Immigration attorneys delivered that0:49blunt warning, but for many the avenues0:52that existed while TPS was in place have0:54narrowed, leaving them to rely on0:55whatever pending claim they can0:57document, and not everyone has one. What0:59remains unknown is how swiftly1:01enforcement will begin against a group1:02that was lawfully present until1:04Wednesday afternoon. The attorney's1:05urgent message is clear, but whether it1:07will be met with a legal pathway or the1:09threat of removal is a question without1:11an answer tonight.Lees het artikelTijdlijn van het verhaalHeyDexDe korte video ↗
