Appeals Court Clears Path for Trump to End TPS for Immigrants from Honduras, Nepal and Nicaragua

HeadlineAug 21, 2025

A federal appeals court has cleared the way for the Trump administration to revoke temporary protected status for 60,000 people from Honduras, Nepal and Nicaragua. Immigrants rights advocates warn the decision could lead to the deportation of families who have lived lawfully in the United States for decades. 

In other immigration news, New York lawmakers have condemned the Trump administration for deporting a 6-year-old New York elementary school student. The girl and her mother were detained at an ICE check-in last week and then deported to Ecuador on Tuesday. The girl’s elementary school principal had urged ICE to halt the deportation, saying her “unexpected removal will cause significant disruption to her learning and will likely have a deep emotional impact on her classmates and our entire school community.”

Meanwhile, in San Francisco, federal immigration agents tackled and zip-tied a protester outside San Francisco’s ICE office on Wednesday. Officers also pepper-sprayed a number of people, including a journalist.
