The Biden administration has extended Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for immigrants from El Salvador, Sudan, Ukraine, and Venezuela, allowing them to renew work permits and deportation protections. This move, benefiting approximately 1 million people, is expected to be challenged by the incoming Trump administration.

The Biden administration on Friday announced it would extend the temporary legal status of nearly 1 million immigrants from El Salvador , Sudan , Ukraine and Venezuela , utilizing a program that is expected to be curtailed by the incoming Trump administration.

While it announced the TPS extensions, the Biden administration on Friday declined to make new arrivals eligible for the temporary status, despite calls from progressive activists who say the move would make it harder for Trump to carry out his promised mass deportations. Redesignating the TPS program for Venezuela, for example, would make hundreds of thousands of additional migrants eligible for the initiative.
