What happened, for context
On August 18, 2026, US District Judge Brian Murphy in Boston lifted a judicial block on the Trump administration's effort to terminate Temporary Protected Status for approximately 5,000 Ethiopian nationals living in the United States. The ruling permits the Department of Homeland Security to end the deportation protections, which had allowed Ethiopians to live and work legally in the US. The decision follows a June 2026 Supreme Court ruling that curtailed federal courts' ability to review DHS terminations of TPS designations.
