US grants temporary deportation reprieve to Ukrainian and Sudanese migrants
The Department of Homeland Security said more than 100,000 people from Ukraine and Sudan whose temporary protected status was set to expire on Monday retain protections for now. Separately, a Trump administration official said a record 300,000 visas had been revoked.
Why it matters
The reprieve lets people from two war-affected countries remain in the US without immediate risk of deportation.
Background
Temporary protected status allows people from countries hit by war or disaster to live and work in the US. The Trump administration has moved to end TPS for several nationalities.
