“While we welcome this victory, it cannot distract from the urgency and need for robust legislative reform that provides permanent solutions for all TPS holders,' said José Palma, Spokesperson for the National TPS Alliance.
The Department of Homeland Security announced on Thursday that in compliance with a court injunction it would be extending the Temporary Protected Status programs it sought to terminate for hundreds of thousands of immigrants from El Salvador, Nicaragua, Haiti and Sudan.
The Homeland Security department added that in the event that the preliminary injunction enforcing the extension is reversed"and that reversal becomes final, DHS will allow for an orderly transition period." Hiwaida Elarabi, a TPS holder from Sudan who is a plaintiff in the case that led to the injunction, said that while the extension"gives space to breathe to some of us… thousands of TPS holders who are not included in this lawsuit are still in limbo without any court protections."
Another lawsuit, Bhattarai v. Nielsen, was filed on February 10, 2019, challenging the termination of TPS programming for people from Honduras and Nepal.
