Supreme Court Hears Arguments on Migrant Protections

The Supreme Court on Wednesday heard arguments concerning the legality of the Trump administration's efforts to terminate Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, for migrants who fled war or natural disasters in their home countries.

The policy specifically affected people from Haiti and Syria, among other nations. The justices are considering the case amid ongoing debate about immigration policy.

The outcome of the case could affect thousands of individuals currently living in the United States under TPS.
