The Trump administration is terminating Temporary Protected Status, known as TPS, for immigrants from Cameroon and Afghanistan living in the U.S. The move affects some 14,600 Afghans and around 7,900 Cameroonians, who would be forced to leave the U.S. by May and June, respectively. The Council on American-Islamic Relations California said, “These individuals have fled war, persecution, and instability — and, in the case of many Afghans, risked their lives to support U.S. operations. This decision will separate families and force people into the shadows.”
