AI Summary:
The announcement pertains to individuals from four specific countries: El Salvador, Sudan, Venezuela and Ukraine. In each case, the designation of “temporary protected status” (TPS) has been extended for 18 months. But the extension only applies to individuals already protected under the programme. Biden administration has not extended TPS protections to foreign nationals in desperate need. Title 42 allowed the US to quickly expel migrants and asylum seekers at the southern border. That measure faced numerous court challenges as a violation of asylum law. Under Biden, nearly 1.2 million non-citizen immigrants became eligible for TPS. Trump ultimately won the 2024 race, and he has signalled he plans to move forward with his immigration crackdown during his first 100 days in office. Biden’s administration emphasised the dire conditions that made the TPS extensions necessary. Returning immigrants to Ukraine, for instance, would expose them to the violence of Russia’s ongoing invasion.
