The US Supreme Court appears poised to support President Donald Trump in ending Temporary Protected Status for migrants from countries such as Haiti and Syria, according to reporting by CNN.p
The report said the court’s conservative majority focused on whether federal courts have the authority to review such decisions, rather than on claims that the policy may violate federal law or equal protection rights.

Temporary Protected Status allows migrants from conflict-hit or disaster-affected countries to live and work in the United States. Trump has moved to terminate protections for all 13 designated countries as part of a broader immigration crackdown.
Attorneys for migrants argued the process behind ending TPS was flawed and influenced by bias. However, several justices questioned whether courts can intervene.
According to CNN, a final ruling is expected by late June.
