US Supreme Court hears Haiti, Syria TPS case with wide-ranging implications

The US Supreme Court has begun hearing a case on whether the Trump administration can revoke temporary protected status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Haitians and Syrians living in the country. The decision could impact around 1.3 million people from 17 countries currently under TPS. Critics point to ongoing political and humanitarian crises in Haiti and Syria, while lawsuits claim that the termination of TPS did not follow proper procedures.
