News In Brief Courts Immigration

NJ immigrant advocacy group condemns Supreme Court rulings on TPS and asylum

A New Jersey immigrant advocacy organization is condemning two U.S. Supreme Court rulings that clear the way for the Trump administration to end legal protections for hundreds of thousands of immigrants and restrict access to asylum at the U.S. border.

In a pair of 6-3 decisions issued Thursday, the court allowed the administration to end Temporary Protected Status for immigrants from Haiti and Syria, potentially exposing hundreds of thousands of people to deportation. The court also ruled that federal officials may prevent some migrants from seeking asylum at the border, marking another victory for the administration’s immigration agenda.

In response, Make the Road New Jersey criticized the decisions, arguing they threaten people fleeing violence and instability.

“Today’s rulings should be understood as part of the administration’s broader de-documentation campaign, not as an isolated attack on lawful and successful programs,” said Nedia Morsy, state director of Make the Road New Jersey. “The Supreme Court should be an independent check on Trump’s cruelty, but they’ve shown once again that they will sign off on the worst of Trump’s violent impulses.”

Morsy called on Congress to enact legislation protecting people with Temporary Protected Status and to create a pathway to citizenship for immigrants.

“It’s time to pass all TPS legislation immediately and move to create a pathway to citizenship for all immigrants,” Morsy said. “Everyone deserves stability and safety. No one should be subject to the whims of court decisions.”
