Supreme Court backs Trump immigration crackdown, widening control over TPS, asylum and green cards

The U.S. Supreme Court, with a 6-3 conservative majority, ruled in favor of expanding the Trump administration’s powers to restrict immigration: allowing the end of humanitarian protections like TPS for Haitians and Syrians, authorizing border officials to turn away asylum seekers at the border, and granting broader authority to deport lawful permanent residents. The rulings suggest a broader effort to redefine who may live in the U.S., with ongoing debate over a looming birthright citizenship case and calls from advocates for Congress to preserve protections for migrants of color.
