Trump recalls deportation protection for another 300,000 Venezuelans in the United States

The Trump administration has intensified its attack on Venezuelans living in the United States during temporary deportation protection, and recalled the right to stay more than 300,000 people.

The move, first reported by the New York Times, comes as a two-punch for Venezuelans who were already rolling from last week’s decision to cancel an 18-month expansion of temporary protected status (TPS) that had been introduced In the last days of the outgoing bit -administration. Turning the expansion was a battle that affected more than 600,000 Venezuelans who lived in the United States.

• What are the details of the new decision? Trump has targeted a subgroup of the Venezuelan immigrant community that entered the TPS program in 2023 and was given the right to remain in the United States until at least April. More than 300,000 Venezuelans have only been given 60 days before they become vulnerable to deportation.
