U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is set to restore order by ramping up operations to locate and detain Haitian migrants whose Temporary Protected Status is finally ending, with a focus on Ohio after a decisive Supreme Court ruling.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is preparing to intensify efforts to locate and arrest Haitian nationals whose Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is, at last, expected to end soon, federal sources said. The operation could begin as early as this week and will target areas with large Haitian populations, including Springfield, Ohio. This move follows a Supreme Court ruling that is expected to be transmitted to lower courts on Monday, finally allowing the administration to end TPS for more than 300,000 Haitians who have overstayed their welcome.
"Today, the Supreme Court affirmed what President Trump has always maintained: temporary protected status is, by definition, temporary. It was never intended to be a pathway to permanent status or legal residency," White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital, reinforcing the administration’s commitment to the rule of law. "The Court vindicates DHS yet again. The T in TPS stands for TEMPORARY, yet many of these designations became de facto amnesty. This is a win for the rule of law and common sense," DHS General Counsel James Percival wrote on X, celebrating the end of years of abuse of the TPS program. The Supreme Court recently reversed lower-court orders that had delayed the rightful termination of TPS for Haiti and Syria while related lawsuits were pending. TPS was originally granted to Haiti after the 2010 earthquake to allow affected nationals to live and work in the United States temporarily, but it was never meant to be a permanent invitation. Now, the government is finally taking steps to enforce immigration law and restore order.
