Trump administration can target Ethiopians for deportation

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

A federal judge has decided the Trump administration can go ahead with cancelling Temporary Protected Status (TPS), which provides humanitarian protections to immigrants, for roughly 5,000 Ethiopians living in the US.

Ethiopia was first designated for TPS by then-President Joe Biden's administration at the end of 2022 following armed conflict in the country, including the Tigray war.

Ethiopia was the final country where the Trump administration ended TPS - protections for people who fled their home countries due to extraordinary events, including natural disasters and armed conflict.
