The Donald
Trump administration submitted to the Supreme Court of the United States (USA) an
emergency appeal to revoke the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) of approximately
300,000 Venezuelans, a measure aimed at facilitating their deportation, which is
part of the Republican magnate's criminal immigration policies.
Through a
document, the Department of Justice (DoJ) asked the magistrates to
suspend the order of federal judge Edward Chen, who stopped the decision of the
Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, to revoke the TPS granted to
some Venezuelans during the Joe Biden administration.
The DoJ argues
that the TPS for Venezuela is against the “national interest” of the
North American country and that the Judiciary does not have the power to decide issues of immigration policy.
Last January, the Secretary of
State, Marco Rubio, recommended the termination of TPS
for more than 600,000 Venezuelans who remain in U.S. territory legally.
